I like the concept of having a funeral while you’re alive to really appreciate and understand what your loved ones think about you. However I felt like a lot of the historical aspect of the characters and character building was somewhat lacking. I’d like to understand more of Craig and Marielles relationship since at some point they had sex. There also wasn’t context behind the Courtney scale. I much preferred the Guncle.

What a delight in observing this group of friends who were real and the dialogue made me feel like I was part of the group.
