This is a tremendous story of mental illness that will pull at your heartstrings and leave a lasting impression. IMO: this is one of the year's best dramas. The performances are simply incredible. I went in not knowing what to expect, only seeing that it received 100% on Rotten Tomatoes. Now I understand how deserved that is. Most movies today don't leave me captivated for the duration of the movie like this one. I'm not going to ruin the ending but I did especially appreciate how realistic it was, yet hopeful. A breathe of fresh air. I will be watching again.

Started off slow but it build up into an incredible movie of everything you can expect when forced to cope with a mentally ill patient. I think both actresses did amazingly well and the mother was so convincing I forgot she was actually acting. I felt almost all kinds of emotions just watching this one, from laughing to anger to frustration to hopelessness to teary. Good one there.

This movie deserves recognition for it's cast, crew and wonderfully told story. There are very few films out there that have such a powerful message and the ability to touch the viewer in such a way. It is a profound and thought provoking film. It highlights the difficulties that arise when faced with the unique challenges of caring for someone with an illness (mental or otherwise).

The cast and crew did a great job in bringing such a wonderfully written script to life on the screen. I would absolutely recommend this film.

This movie makes us understand delusion disorder, the mental illness can screw people life totally, especially the ones surround them. It's nothing dramatic and kinda sad the choice of the daughter. Mental health is really important.

This one deserves to be recognized. I can't personally think of another similar story out there and that uniqueness is something special.

This movie shines a light on what it is like to care for somebody with an illness (of any kind) and the repercussions of that, for the victim and their loved ones.

There are some astounding performances by Taylor, Owen, and Nelson, and the rest of the cast feels so right as well for this story. It starts with a fantastic script, which is in part due to the fact that this seems to be a personal and touching story. The direction, writing, and cinematography are very strong and hook you in right from the beginning.
