The Dish & The Spoon Review

Watching "The Dish & The Spoon" is like watching paint dry. The pacing was slow that I found myself wanting to go to sleep, but searching for a plot instead. The story is about a married woman, Rose, whose husband cheated on her. She comes to accept this fact, but not before having a young british boy attach himself to her like a lovesick puppy. Together they try to find the girl Rose's husband cheated on her with and along the way show that neither one of them is emotionally stable. Unfortunately, I could never tell if Rose's character was drunk or just rude. Both of the leads were mundane at best. There are some charming moments to this film, but overall it is something to put on when you do not want to be in the room. Written and Directed by Alison Bagnall; Running time: 90 minutes; Rated R (for some sexual references and language) With: Greta Gerwig, Olly Alexander
