Mrs. Happy is a fascinating documentary that dives into an unusual platonic relationship. Set in the mid-50s, it explores the connection between a young girl working at a spa hotel and an older former client. The letters they exchange are filled with a kind of old-fashioned respect that's rare to see, and the way they articulate their feelings is just lovely. The pacing is contemplative—almost meditative at times. It has this warm, nostalgic atmosphere that really captures the essence of the era. The performances come through in the letters, giving a voice to their emotions, and it's distinct in how it focuses on a relationship that defies typical romantic tropes. It’s understated but resonates deeply.
