Golden Exits is one of those gems you feel very happy to come across every now and then. A film with real characters with real life problems that I am sure many people can relate to. One of the characters says that there are not many films made about ordinary people and that is what Golden Exits is basically about. The dialogue is fantastic and some of it might stay with you long after you have watched the film. It delas with feelings of unhappines, doubt, being stuck in life, seeing the world bleaker than it actually is etc. There is also a nice contrast between how simple the film seems to be when it comes to technical aspects but at the same time contains such heavy and deep content that grips you strongly. Good direction and top class acting are accompanied by a simple piano soundtrack that fits the mood of the film very well. Truly a little diamond that all fans of good drama might enjoy and appreciate.
