L'Effet veuf

...a satisfyingly adult, bittersweet drama which argues that even a seemingly gilded life can be painfully messy.

...a heartbreaking and warm film...

...an elegant, tender film about gay love and loss...

...an earnest, overcast take on gay love and loss.

...is not a dramedy (even though it is marketed as one), but rather a somber film about the messiness of grief and its often unforgiving, even destructive, grip.
