The sister companion to ‘4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days’ takes a grim look at abortion in America. Thanks to the towering performances of Flanigan and Ryder, the result is heartbreaking, without resolution, almost tragically anecdotal. So nearly a masterpiece, the story is dented by misandrist undercurrents, flowing throughout the film. Men serve only to assault women verbally and physically. Hittman may have had bad experiences with men, but sexism is a door that swings both ways.

The silence in this movie speaks volumes at times, to pretty great effect, but at other times I personally struggled to understand why it was there. Maybe it's just because I wanted to know more about Autumn & her story even though the script was never interested in telling me, but I could never get fully invested & the second half really seemed to drag on after a while. That said, though, the title scene is incredibly powerful & I'm not going to forget about it soon. Sidney Flanigan shines.

Authentic telling of a largely untold story. It didn't blow me away but it definitely has emotional pieces and an important story to tell

A great slow-burning indie drama. The two obvious highlights are the infuriating early scene in which Autumn is given questionable advice from a well-meaning lady and the chilling session in which she is asked a series of questions. Sidney Flanigan knocks the latter out of the park but Talia Ryder is also terrific as the cousin. My only small gripe is that the sex as a commodity theme is hammered home in the somewhat unnecessary pinky solidarity scene.

An intentionally hard watch that doesn't beat you over the head with obvious politics. The politics are obviously there, but there's an ideological neutrality that comes from telling the story naturally.

At first I thought this was lacking a spark. Then I understood it wasn't trying to entertain me in traditional senses, or even at all, but rather tell an all-too-common story that too many of us are oblivious to. These experiences do not spring out of the ground. Girls like Autumn exist everywhere in droves and I hope this makes them feel seen, and provokes the rest of us to help make their lives easier. Don't be one of those "not all men" guys. Don't miss the point so handedly.

A movie built almost entirely on raw emotions. The clinic scene was particularly affecting. I'd say stylistically it mostly works, though ultimately it comes down to the screenplay, which both in character and story is too sparse for my tastes. Would have made for a terrific short film, but decent enough as is.

Difficult to rate, because while I think the form is solid (hint of Bresson, bit more of the Dardennes), I also find the writing disappointing. In particular, the every-man-is-lecherous theme feels completely out of place with the realism the rest of the film seeks to embody. I also struggle with Autumn's overwhelming propensity to make bad choices (rejects volunteer help; prostitutes friend). That said, the film's power to elicit empathy is so strong, and "that scene" is appropriately powerful.

The oppressive environment weighs so heavy here: the stream of normalized wounds is endless (see "slut" x2, creep manager) and becomes a flood of pain and tears during the titular scene and the reach around the pillar. Riveting and heartbreaking with its subtle script, intimate cinematography, delicate soundtrack, quietly powerful performances, and absence of a happy or climactic ending. Fuck the patriarchy and fuck any male defensiveness taking the place of empathy in reaction to this film.

A film absolutely powerful in its intimacy. Natural performances and lighting and a soft touch behind the lens give its all-too-real content an almost documentarian quality that simply aches in its subtleties. The touch around the pillar, the shared suitcase on the escalator, the makeup in the bathroomthese quiet scenes and tiny moments overwhelm the heart while the titular scene midway through utterly rends it. Also, this film is *not about men*, so quit complaining.

Natural & powerful, although sometimes lacking in subtlety in its portrayal of men (understandble but still). Made me feel like shit for most of the running time.

Solid filmmaking and good acting, but the only way I can understand the excitement this is generating on year-end lists is that the listmakers haven't been paying a lot of attention to the European festival circuit (or even American indies). The questionnaire scene is very powerful. === Having said all that, this one is definitely sticking in my mind longer than the average movie.

some very disturbing situations "some/"many" women rarely/sometimes/always have to face. Yet, are we the men, really categorically all brutes/creatures trying to exploit women on every occasion? I saw this sisterhood thing in this year's Russian film "Beanpole", too. Are we all savages?

What strikes me about this is how little is ever *said* in this film. She follows the social contract, which requires that this is something girls simply have to deal with themselves, and everyone already knows how it goes. Only when an actual, printed script is introduced is she forced to put words on it for a few minutes before slipping back into low-key survival mode - no great resolution, no riding off into new life, just a dodged bullet.
