Three sentence movie reviews: Grandma

 In All (-ish), Three Sentence Movie Reviews

grandma

An excellent episodic film with solid performances by all.  I enjoyed Lily Tomlin’s Grandma to be something more complex than a kindly older lady.*  There was great reflection of life choices by women (and a few men) of all ages, which was interesting.

Cost: $2.75 from Videorama
Where watched: at home

*For most of the movie, she was the opposite of kindly.

    I do love me some Lily Tomlin, and it’s been nice to see her getting more work lately.

    I have heard such good things about this movie. I love that LT gets to be cantankerous and not apologize. Good Bechdel pass?

      Indeed. Because Lily Tomlin plays a lesbian, her and the granddaughter mostly only talk to women. One of the few “men” in the movie is Nat Wolff, playing a dirtbag teenager. I love Nat Wolff sightings.
