Driveways (2019)

Sometimes I poke at myself for continually adding every little film that intrigues me to my grand To Watch list, but other times I’m grateful because I end up watching lesser known gems such as this one. Hong Chau is a single mother who has temporarily moved into her recently deceased sister’s home to prepare it for sale. Brian Dennehy is the next-door neighbor who bonds with her young son. This is such a complex portrayal of different ages and life experiences, particularly when dealing with death, that it feels as if it fully encompasses every stage of life itself. The acting is excellent and it really is a beautiful little film.
