Review of I'll See You in My Dreams (2015) by Preciouskiki — 13 Jun 2015
Blythe Danner is just stunning in this movie. She is so lovely to look at and yet so natural looking. It is a pleasure to see a woman nowadays who can look so beautiful without wearing tons of heavy makeup.
She is such a wonderful actress and deserves an Oscar nomination for this understated yet spot-on performance. Martin Starr is wonderful as the guy who cleans her pool and becomes her friend. I've admired his work in every movie I've seen him in (from "Adventureland" to "Knocked Up" and now the TV show "Silicon Valley").
Although I have loved his quirky long-haired characters, it's nice to see him playing a regular-guy character with short hair. I'd like to see him get a lot of work in future films. Both he and Blythe Danner are just absolute gems.
And it's great to see Sam Elliott, June Squibb, Mary Kay Place, Rhea Perlman, and (surprise!) wasn't that Max Gail of "Barney Miller" fame? (He played Det. Stan "Wojo" Wojciehowicz) I thought so! Yup, and he was wonderful in a small part.
This was a wonderful ensemble piece. I think it deserved a more memorable title, though.
