Somehow a story that otherwise honors the value of a man to his family fails to notice the irony of applauding arrangements that rob little girls of fathers. Full Review

Rating: 3/4 -- "The Meddler" is a humorously poignant look at aging, grief, identity and the need for connection. Full Review
Daily Journal (Kankakee, IL)

Rating: 4/5 -- Sarandon and Byrne are great together, and the gruff J K Simmons relishes a rare romantic part in what is an intelligent and touching exploration of long-term grief. Full Review

You gotta love Marnie Minervini, the nosy, needy, New Jersey transplant and title character of THE MEDDLER. That she's played with such instinctual warmth and comic verve by the estimable Susan Sarandon is the icing on a well-baked cake...

Rating: B+ -- It takes the approach to "a mother's work is never done" with Susan Sarandon, who gives one of her most nuanced, albeit plucky roles in years. Full Review

Rating: B -- A profound look at loss and loneliness... Sarandon, accent aside, is very good here. Full Review

Rating: 3/5 -- The film is bracing at first and then allows itself to slip into schmaltz. Full Review

Product Description:

After the death of her husband, a woman named Marnie (Susan Sarandon) relocates to Los Angeles to be closer to her daughter Lori (Rose Byrne), a Hollywood screenwriter. While Lori frets about her mom's smothering ways, Marnie keeps getting involved in the lives of others: She dates an ex-cop (J.K. Simmons), helps an Apple Store employee study for school, and pays for a lesbian wedding. Lorene Scafaria wrote and directed this comedy-drama, which is based on her relationship with her real-life mom. THE MEDDLER made its world premiere at the 2015 Toronto International Film Festival.
