just slightly less than a good experience. i liked delving into how being born with a cleft palate shaped the mmc's childhood and all that. i liked that the first words she spoke to him were fucking hilarious. i didn't love the dialogue and for some reason the chemistry really fizzled out for me about halfway in. i wish her identity as an actor had been more explored. i guess i was looking for more grounding moments and didn't find them. also found the dinner scene when she confronts his dad to be weird as hell. if three other people in that room already knew about his dad's diagnosis, why did they let that situation spiral like it did? i'm cool with families being complex and maybe even shitty but it felt less like a narrative choice and more of an oversight.
