Director Kenneth Lonergan masterfully crafts a story that is both heart-wrenching and beautifully human.

Michelle Williams delivers a particularly moving performance as Lee's estranged wife, Randi, whose brief but impactful scenes add layers to the film's emotional depth. The cinematography captures the stark beauty of the coastal town, reflecting the characters' internal landscapes and enhancing the film's melancholic tone.
