There's a lovely tone here, and Charly Clive is magnetic. But it is perhaps a little bogged down by the proximity to real life events. The central relationship between best friends isn't quite working on-screen. I don't know if it's the casting or the writing- probably a combination. Tiny moments that had such great magnitude in the creator's lives don't translate to a fictional story that is as funny, dramatic, moving or compelling as it needs to be.
