If you loved Sherrybaby, try Sunlight Jr.
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Laurie Collyer, and they both carry the tender mood tag, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Sherrybaby, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Sunlight Jr. is
Lars and the Real Girl without the whimsy but all the tenderness. A cash-strapped convenience store worker and her disabled boyfriend face an unplanned pregnancy that strains their fragile stability. Small performances, big emotional precision—a quiet snapshot of love pressed against the edges of American resilience.
