Movie Meetup — The Drama — Meet from 7:15, film at 8:20

"It’s conflicted, messy, ambiguous, and imperfect"
★★★★ Clarisse Loughrey, The Independent

ABOUT THE FILM

"This much anticipated romantic black comedy stars Zendaya (as Emma) and Robert Pattinson (as Charlie), a happily engaged couple whose relationship faces an unexpected, chaotic turn after a shocking revelation from one of them sends their wedding week completely off the rails.

"Described in turn as "nasty," "brilliant," and "very uncomfortable" you will be asking "what was said?" And why was it said?"
—Watershed summary

"... a fascinating thought experiment about the nature of identity in relationships: who we are to other people, how easily that can change, and how disruptive it can be when it does.
★★★★★ Alexander Harrison, Screen Rant

"A nuptial apocalypse has rarely been explored with such dark intelligence and mordant wit as in this often piercing and cringe-out-loud dramedy.
★★★★★ Kevin Maher, The Times

But it is divisive ...

"[Borgli's] mealy-mouthed timidity in addressing genuinely controversial and provocative subjects, especially those that require a radical kind of empathy, not only renders his supposedly edgy provocations dull."
★★ Robert Daniels, Roger Ebert
