Nos vies après eux

I have been searching the whole Netflix to find a movie like that one, it is sensual, joyful and hitting lifestyle in all its aspects. I really liked the movie it is simple yet concise and leaves a good impressions! Well you gonna watch the behind the scenes and check how those actresses are playing an immensely great role.

I enjoyed it and glad to see I'm not alone in feeling neglected😥

Such a lovely movie. Makes me hope Felicity Huffman isn't ostracized from Hollywood as she's such a great actress. Great to see Becki Newton too...she needs to me in more movies!

This movie starts out as a tale of three mothers in upstate New York who feel ignored by their sons, who live in New York City. There is comedy and some cliché acting, but when you look further you witness what many parents experience nowadays: losing contact with their children who are living their own life without ever thinking about the persons who raised them en love them. It's about the present hedonistic and shallow lifestyle of many young persons, the selfish attitude they are not even aware of themselves. I guess many young people who criticise this movie recognise themselves in the three sons.

I think this is one of Netflix's better efforts at feature films. The story was well-written and supported, with perhaps a couple of weak spots (i.e. an explanation of the connection between Matthew & the woman his mom {Angela Basset's character} partied with at the club); the purpose of the second couple, I assume, sharing the brownstone where Paul lives with his partner). The actresses were a great cross-section of mothers who are also friends and have some who are close friends.

Is it an Oscar, award-winning film? No. Did it keep me engaged, interested, and eager to see how things turned out at the end? Absolutely, YES! It was a perfect break from the depressing/serious and/or thought-provoking documentaries I also watch regularly on Netflix.
