“Michelle Pfeiffer digs into one of her juiciest roles yet, one that plays on her impossible beauty as well as her capacity for lacerating detachment.”~RogerEbert.com

Aroview: Another wonderfully surreal comedy from director Azazel Jacobs (THE LOVERS).

Michelle Pfeiffer plays a privileged Manhattan heiress who loses her wealth after the death of her husband, and moves to Paris with her son (Lucas Hedges, BOY ERASED) and the cat she believes is a reincarnation of her dead husband. Based on the novel of the same name by Patrick deWitt, who also wrote the screenplay.
