GRANDMA

REVIEWED
Grandma is not a comedy just because Lily Tomlin is in the lead. Its a family story comprising of people who tend or trying to be funny. It has side stars appearing very briefly like John Choo and that guy from paper towns.

Its about the mission of getting her granddaughter for an abortion. It all happened in one day. The plot "thickens" as Grandma dont have enough money and she does not communicate with Sage(Gran daughter) mother. In this "journey" a few things happened along the way. The film is short at 1hr 18m. If it had been longer it would feel more draggy than it is.

Grandma's life is really complicated. First shes a lesbian who's partner passed away. But before that she was married but had an abortion. Her daughter is adopted. And the daughter went to the sperm bank and gave birth to her "granddaughter". So biologically, the granddaughter is not related to her.

This film strive on good acting LT got herself nominated recent awards. But I was impressed with Sam Elliot who eventhough appeared briefly gave a superb performance as the man who had married 4 times but can never get over that he married a lesbian for his 1st marriage.

The plot is not heavy and you'll get by it and perhaps understand that no matter what gender its all about Love.
