Nowhere Special- Bring The Tissues, This Will Destroy You

Quick Take: I’m compiling a list of the films from 2024 that I most want to see again should they acquire audio description, and this UK import is definitely on that list. It just doesn’t have enough dialog for me to recommend the film without audio description, but if you are among those who don’t need accessibility, this is a heartbreaker of a film that has fallen totally under the radar. James Norton plays a single father who is given some terrible news. he doesn’t have a lot of time left, which concerns him, because he’s unsure of who will take the best care of his young son. So the film is him trying to not alert his son to the impending doom, but also seek out and meet with families who might be able to take care of his son when he dies, getting to see his son’s reaction to them, and theirs. He painstakingly tries to figure out who will be best to raise his son, knowing that before this movie is over, he’s got a really difficult conversation coming with his son. I didn’t even ahve audio description, and I was moved. If I had audio description, I’d probably be wrecked by this. For more, check out my video.
