The story of Love After Love is one of grieving, and it's about that process in a specific, particularly sad sort of way.

Andie MacDowell [displays] one of the best performances of her career.

Yet this movie, for all its laudable aspects, left me wanting for more, a personally frustrating turn of events to say the least.

I wish the pieces of Harbaugh's domestic jigsaw fit more elegantly together. Sometimes, it seems as if he's tripping into scenes the way a person might stumble into a darkened room before turning on the light.

Maybe the most damaging factor is that [director Russ] Harbaugh does nothing to establish that the paterfamilias, first seen in reasonably good health at a family gathering, is such an emotional touchstone to his wife and sons.

First-time director Russell Harbaugh presents grief as it is, in all its pain and ugliness, rather than using the convenient, uplifting short-hand that Hollywood prefers.

The film is a bit messy at times, but considering the circumstances on screen, that seems appropriate.
April 19, 2018
It's a film intentionally adrift, rambling between a loose succession of family gatherings and dinner parties with subdued style, the camera feeling like just another person at the edge of the room.

I found it a great masochistic experience.
March 30, 2018
This first-time feature from writer/director Russell Harbaugh has an understated, intimate, pointillist style, with a cool jazz score that matches its improvisational tone.
April 05, 2018
Challenging, unflinching and deeply honest.
April 17, 2018
An unflinching portrait of how grief can unravel a tightknit family in ways both banal and heart-wrenching.
