Last Resort

About This Movie

Last Resort (2022) is this deeply affecting drama that captures the fragile line between life and love in the most unexpected places. The premise—two terminally ill hospice residents wanting to set their spouses up with each other—is really intriguing, and it’s handled with a kind of raw tenderness that's hard to shake off. The pacing is deliberate, allowing you to settle into the emotional weight of their situation, and the performances are surprisingly nuanced; you can really feel their desperation and hope. What stands out is how the story takes these turns, especially when love blooms unexpectedly between the two residents. It sort of flips everything on its head, turning a film about death into one about life and second chances. Just a really interesting exploration of humanity.
