The Friend

An emotional punch to the solar plexus of your soul.

Naomi Watts gives a poignantly paw-sitive take on grief in The Friend.

What will unfold between the pair isn’t surprising... but how Iris and Apollo come to their revelations and realizations is satisfying in ways that transcend any plot expectations.

Naomi Watts befriends great dane in sweet, slight drama.

...sweet and simple on the surface, but more layered and depressed than you might expect.

...asks, often with a good-natured smile, what can and must be salvaged from tragedy, and how we make room for this hazmat effort in a hectic life.
