Production[edit]
Myers revisited a previous draft of the script after completing his previous film, Harvest (2010), as he felt that after several years of marriage, it was time to return to the story and explore a type of intimacy that he never put on screen before.[2]
Reception[edit]
The film received mixed reviews from critics, currently holding a 38% 'Rotten' rating on Rotten Tomatoes.[3] Nick Schager of Variety was positive about the film, saying that it was 'Mature and moving in its navigation of convoluted, conflicting desires.'[4] Bob Strauss of the Los Angeles Daily News wrote that 'It's the type of mature drama that's rarely seen in American movies -- even the indie ones.'[5] Steve Greene of Indiewire also wrote positively of the film, praising Amy Hargreaves' performance and saying that 'With a sharp focus...Meyers foregoes easy judgment or condemnation to give a full view of a love with consequences.'[6]
