Matt Roush says...
Irish filmmaker John Carney (Once, Sing Street) once again threads music into a memorable fable in this salty-sweet depiction of a combative mother-son relationship. Bad Sisters’ Eve Hewson is the formidable, flinty Flora, a single mom barely getting by and driven to distraction by her borderline-delinquent son Max (Orén Kinlan). The catalyst for healing is a guitar rescued from the rubbish, and when Flora begins taking online lessons from Jeff (a charming Joseph Gordon-Levitt), a stalled songwriter who lives half a world away in California, a shared interest in making music brings Flora and Max closer together. You’ll root for Flora and Jeff as well. Be sure and stay tuned through the credits for one last poignant song.
