Overview

• Released on September 27 in select cinemas and on Apple TV+, the near‑future romance is co-written by and stars Brett Goldstein and is directed by William Bridges.
• At a London Q&A, Goldstein said the scripted final line was a callback joke that they ultimately chose not to use.
• Bridges explained they never shot the originally planned conclusion because the day’s intensity pushed them toward a more truthful, largely nonverbal ending.
• A “brilliant” monologue by Zawe Ashton was also removed, with the moment instead conveyed through exchanged glances.
• Early reaction highlights social posts about “streaming tears,” an initial 74% Rotten Tomatoes score, and reports that it topped Apple TV+’s film chart over the weekend.
