Alone Together (I) (2022)
5/10
Actually pretty watchable.
22 June 2023
June and Charlie are thrown together by a twist of fate, both have booked an air BnB, the same one. It just so happens that the covid 19 pandemic is starting.

It's an inoffensive, easy going movie, it doesn't offer anything profound or deeply moving, but it's definitely a watchable movie, one to watch after a stressful day with a glass of wine.

Credit to Katie Holmes, she wrote, directed and started in this movie, clearly someone who throws herself into her work, and is keen to explore all aspects of movie making, both behind and in front of the camera.

I put myself back to that time, when the pandemic was just about starting, everywhere was shut, people were frightened, it was a scary time, it made for an interesting backdrop. It's a love story set during an unusual time.

I'm wondering if this was made at a time where restrictions were still in place, hence the small cast and distance, if that's the case, credit to them.

The amount of Maccy D's we all ate during those early days......

Holmes was good as always, Jim Sturgess was excellent, that was a convincing accent, all credit to him.

Not bad to be honest.

6/10.
