– di Marinella Correggia –
It follows a story of love, friendship, grief, and healing, about a writer who adopts a Great Dane that belonged to a deceased friend and mentor. While most authors don’t like the film adaptation of their book, Sigrid Nunez said she was pleased with how her book was presented in this film adaptation.. Screened at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) on September 11, 2024 (First Watch ) Format: Regular Cinema. The story doesn’t know where it’s going, which is why it just keeps going on and To me, the film feels more like a story between a dog and a grieving person, rather than about a suicidal writer who died and left his dog behind . It seemed very chaotic in this aspect and could have easily gone deeper in terms of this theme or shown a flashback to support Bill Murray’s character. Other than that, nothing special but overall, a sweet and warm film to watch!
