If you loved The Hero, try I'll See You in My Dreams

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 Brett Haley, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Hero, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What I'll See You in My Dreams is

A film clearly designed to appeal to a specific demographic. Widow Carol Petersen finds her quiet life upended and tentatively begins dating again. It seems designed to reassure older viewers that life isn't over yet, even if the film itself is.
