And then AMC had a screening with a Q& A with Payne after, so I saw it again the other day. According to Payne, they found Dominic Sessa at the school they were filming at and he had never been in front of a camera before. Very surprising. Him, Giamatti and Randolph are all fantastic. Hope they get some awards season love this year.

Also, anyone who loves the look of 70’s movies is gonna enjoy this.

I like that they didn’t tie up every loose end. There’s a version of this movie where Paul quits drinking and Angus falls in love, etc. I liked that this followed a moment in time for these 3 characters and we know they’re all gonna continue to have ups and downs. It’s a feel good story, but it doesn’t try to “happily ever after” any of them.
