Together - 2021 - 6/10

Opposites attract. Although, with opposites, attraction often reverts to repulsion.
Here, the couple have nothing in common.
He is Conservative, a businessman, an exploiter.
She is Liberal, does charity, is sanctimonious. “Hey, look what I’m doing for others!”
They stay together for the sake of their love-child, Artie.
Then Covid. And with Lockdown, they are forced to endure each other (and poor Artie) for a year.
Stagey looking film benefits from terrific acting. Dialogue is staccato and crisp, something I usually associate with 1930’s cinema.
Scores points when Covid mistakes and aftermath are topics. Suffers during spleen venting.
Ending is predictable and phony.
