She watched "The Friend" at the New York Film Festival in the midst of a grateful and applauding crowd
Scenario
The story of love, friendship, grief and healing continues about a writer who adopts a Great Dane that belonged to a late friend and mentor. While most authors do not like the adaptation of their book, Sigrid Núñez said that she is satisfied with the way her book is presented in this adaptation.
Iris is a complex character, brilliantly played by Naomi Watts
This is a multidimensional story of sorrow, where we do not know whether a person supports an animal or vice versa. We are trying to understand Walter's character through the interaction of his relatives and friends.
The background of New York, where the story is set, was also shot amazingly
But in the end it is Apollo who helps everyone find their way in life. It has its own character as Iris and Apollo go through their daily lives among millions of people.
Finally, big thanks to the dog playing Apollo
One of the best films with the participation of animals.
