FML

About This Movie

FML is an interesting blend of comedy and drama, directed by Zachary Chabot. The tone oscillates between heartfelt and humorous, which might catch you off guard at first. It’s about a woman grappling with grief, delivering a eulogy that reveals layers of her relationship with the deceased. The pacing feels a bit uneven at times, which actually complements the theme of life’s chaos and unpredictability. The performances are raw and genuine, especially from the lead, who manages to evoke a range of emotions from laughter to tears. There’s a certain intimacy in the way the practical effects and settings are used, grounding the film in a relatable reality. It’s a distinctive take on grief and the absurdity of loss, really.

Directorial debut for Zachary Chabot.Interesting take on grief and comedy.Strong character-driven narrative.
