Goodbye June

Last edited Sat Dec 27, 2025, 01:13 PM - Edit history (1)

I watched this on Netflix last night. The topic is sad but the acting is out of this world. Helen Mirren astounded me. Kate Winslet is in it and directed it, I believe her son wrote it. Toni Collette is also a character, literally! There's another sister who was great but I don't know who she is, the dad is a recognizable character actor and he too was great.
I highly recommend this poignant, delightful movie.

Here's the deets ^^ if you want to find that sister -- and also, I "discovered" Andrea Riseborough a couple of years ago, she's just a superior talent!!

Thank you!

Andrea Riseborough was terrific, as was Timothy Spall, who played the dad.
I am a big fan of Kate Winslet so think she's wonderful in everything she does.
