my opinion on "For Ellen"

WARNING: THIS DOES CONTAIN SPOILERS!!!!!!

this paul dano movie was actually pretty heartwarming. seeing a dad see his daughter for the last time was really sad, but im happy that in that they managed to connect. i was kinda confused by his random girlfriend (?) barging in jobys car at like the last 25 minutes because i dont think i had ever seen this woman being mentioned or showed at the beginning of the movie, she just kinda busts in. i didnt really understand the ending too (it might just be my dumbass) though. i guess he ran away, because he didnt enjoy his life???? i really dont know. overall, this movie felt like a really long short film. im not sure why, but it just does to me. i only kinda half connected to paul danos character (joby taylor), sadly. out of ten (ten being the best, one being the worst) this movie would be a six for me.
