‘Good Grief’
After knowing and loving him as the boisterous, opinionated Schitt’s Creek resident David Rose, Daniel Levy’s new Netflix movie, Good Grief, may surprise viewers. Written and directed by Levy in his directorial debut, Levy casts himself as a thirty-something man dealing with the aftermath of the tragic and sudden death of his husband (played by Luke Evans). Levy’s character is forced to reconcile with some hard truths about his late husband, but more importantly, about his own handling of loss. It’s a light touch of a movie, with not very many laughs (save one hilarious Kaitlyn Dever cameo), but plenty of heart. It’s not perfect, but it is a thoughtful rumination on grief.
