Please Give (2010)
This independent film from writer/director Nicole Holofcener stars Catherine Keener, Oliver Platt, Rebecca Hall and Amanda Peet. A woman that resells dead peoples furniture feels guilty about her business while her next door neighbours grand daughters wait for their grandmother to die.
While this film is supposed to be a dark comedy there are not a huge amount of comedic moments in the film and it is more about how people view death of others rather than how we deal with death itself. Given the topic there are a number of films about similar themes and this film does not do a huge amount to make it stand out from the crowd but is still watchable if maybe not fully realised in execution.
3/5
