Be Good

About This Movie

So, 'Be Good' is this quiet little drama that dives deep into the chaos of parenting and the struggle of balancing work and family life. Paul, the protagonist, is this ambitious filmmaker who, when left alone with his baby girl Pearl, just can't seem to find his footing. It’s a slow burn, but that’s part of its charm—watching him unravel as he grapples with his new role. The performances feel real, almost raw, capturing the frustration and vulnerability of parenthood. You really feel the weight of his expectations and failures. There’s something about the way it portrays everyday life that’s both relatable and a bit unsettling. Not a lot of flashy effects here, just grounded storytelling that sticks with you.
