Will & Harper

My husband and I found this movie to be incredibly heartfelt, and agree it was beautifully done. The topic was approached so artfully, with care and compassion. We didn't realize we could like Will Farrell any more than we already do, but to see his love for his friend, and his own vulnerability was just beautiful. We could all use such a caring, brave friend. Thank you, Harper, for allowing us all in this journey of yours, as we all have so much to learn.

We laughed out loud, cried, and then laughed again. This film should be required viewing in high school, as so many.kids could learn and grow from this film.

An intimate and touching portrayal of a decades-long friendship. Will & Harper is a timely, poignant, and often hilarious documentary that delves into the themes of self-acceptance, life in general, and of course how it feels to be trans. Harper & Will are a great comedy duo, and the touching moments between them as they reflect on their years of friendship and Harper's experiences with such honesty and nuance need to be seen.

It's a very important movie that I hope a lot of people see - if it just helps even one person be a little gentler with themselves and with others, and a little kinder, then it will have been worth it.

My first review and not a long one.

Great movie about friendship, being who you are and how difficult it is to be, if you are not like the majority.

It also shows, that most people are okay with it all, once they meet you and not just hate from home.

As a Dane this is a movie about what is right in the world - the friendship and love through acceptance and a deep connection between people.

At the same time it shows how broken America is, with all the hate and even laws against people basic rights like who you wanna be or abortion etc.

Loved the genuine conduct of Will and Harper, no acting just them.

A much watch movie for everyone who either needs to find acceptance or need to understand that it doesn't hurt them, that someone is different.

Just saw the premiere. It hasn't sold but oh boy it will. It's well worth a watch when it gets distributed. Saw it with my father who is around Wills age, and who appears to be the target demo for this type of film. He came away with a whole new perspective on trans people and ally-ship. But it isn't so preachy that it will turn off this audience and has equal laughs mixed in with the heartfelt moments of Will and Harper's friendship.

Their chemistry together is electric, even at the moments where Will struggles with some of the serious situations and as he tried to treat parts as a comedy act. But this ultimately appears to lead to growth for Will in what it means to be an ally.

No doubt some will take issue with Wills levity but it really adds a whole dimension to what happens when a friend comes out. There is an awkward adjustment phase, but in the end the cameras and the situation melt away.

My only complaint is that Sundance's program director sucks at Q&A and constantly gets bailed out by talented people like Will and Harper.

I just saw an early screening of "Will & Harper" and went on the ride of a lifetime. It felt like a privilege to go along with these two old friends on a journey of self-discovery and redefining their relationship. Loved every minute of it, all the way through the end credits. You see a new, intimate side to Will Ferrell and learn about an extremely talented and tortured soul who can finally be who they truly are. You wish everyone would watch this movie, because if they do they will definitely have more compassion for the transgender community. Unexpected moments, lovely scenery and great cameos, too.
