Overview
- The film had its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival on Monday and is playing in TIFF’s Special Presentations program.
- Critics praised Annie Murphy’s lead turn and the chemistry between Murphy and Cooper Raiff, with onetime babysitter/age‑gap dynamics noted as a provocative hook rather than the story’s central focus.
- The screenplay was written by David West Read with Murphy in mind, and the supporting cast includes Zosia Mamet, Christine Baranski, Bill Irwin, Finn Wittrock and John Gemberling.
- Filmmakers said the production was shot in and around Toronto on a tight 22‑day schedule and that most scenes were limited to two takes to keep the shoot performance‑driven and efficient.
- Sales are being handled by CAA and the film is actively seeking U.S. distribution, with its TIFF reception expected to shape offers and release plans in the coming weeks.
