A love story that isn’t technically a love story, Nikole Beckwith’s Together Together is a special kind of movie. It tells the story of a rather unconventional relationship in a heartfelt way that manages to avoid slipping into oversentimentality, culminating in an ending that feels heartbreakingly fitting. Together Together premiered at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year and, for those looking for a poignant tale of friendship to welcome in the warmer weather, they couldn’t do much better than this slice-of-life tale. Anchored by excellent lead performances from Ed Helms and Patti Harrison, Together Together is a charming crowd-pleaser with a lot of heart.Together Together 2021 Movie Download.
App developer Matt (Helms) is perhaps not the first person many would expect to seek out a surrogate. A single man in his 40s, Matt desires some kind of connection in life, one he has yet to experience. Together Together begins with Matt interviewing a prospective surrogate named Anna (Harrison), a barista in her 20s with effectively no meaningful relationships. Despite her interview suffering from some extreme awkwardness, she passes with flying colors and is soon pregnant with Matt’s child. Over the course of Anna’s pregnancy, she and Matt navigate their strange new relationship, with Matt coming on as far more hands-on than Anna was expecting.Together Together 2021 Movie Download.
Based on that premise, it would be so easy for Together Together to spiral into a romance. It’s something Matt and Anna even remark on at various points throughout the film, not to mention the outsiders who often misunderstand their relationship when they venture out in public. Thankfully, Beckwith (who also penned the script) resists any urge to follow that path. Instead, Together Together lets Anna and Matt grow as friends. With a slim 90-minute runtime, there are moments when their relationship (and Anna’s pregnancy) progresses faster than expected. It can be a bit jarring at first, but Beckwith manages to ease Together Together into a nice slice-of-life narrative.
