Film Reviews

Evoking the same dark comedic energy of Hal Ashby’s Harold and Maude, Jellyfish and Lobster is a similar joyful take on life’s bleak moments. When Grace is admitted into a home following her cancer diagnosis she strikes up a friendship with Mido, another resident with whom her mischievous sensibility very much aligns. The pleasure of Yasmin Afifi’s film comes from the witty realization of its excellent screenplay by its two leads who share real chemistry alongside a great, heartwarming sense of buoyant vitality.


Extraordinary
Funny, poignant, heart achingly beautiful. You will laugh, you will cry, you will find it impossible to not be moved by the tenderness and fragility played out on screen. You will be struck by not only the bravery of the characters, but by the director and writer herself who has created something utterly incredible for us to not only watch, but feel.
