The Art of Crying

About This Movie

The Art of Crying is an intriguing exploration of emotional release and intimacy. Jennifer, played with a complex blend of warmth and manipulation, operates in this strange niche of helping others cry. The film's atmosphere is often tense, underscored by a sense of urgency as Faye, the younger client, becomes entwined in Jennifer's life. Their connection feels almost palpable, yet there's an underlying sadness that permeates their relationship, especially when the truth about Jennifer's family emerges. The pacing allows for deep reflection, with moments that linger just long enough to really hit home.
