Your Sister's Sister

We were supposed to see it in Cambridge Arts Picturehouse 6.30pm today, when we got there, they told us that there was a mistake and the showing was supposedly 11am, and no one turned up! Well... Guess I have no idea how the film is. Is rather dumfounded.

Erm - Picturehouse screenings are always on a Sunday morning at 11am - not sure why everyone would have got confused? Even if they made a mistake on the printouts, surely someone would have noticed?

That must have been a printing error on the ticket. Definitely worthy reporting that mistake to SFF.

Saw this at Stratford East to a half full cinema and a definite more mature audience as well.

The film reminded me of LIke Crazy early this year which most people hated but which I enjoyed. This film I enjoyed too. Yes, it was a rather self indulgent film. I enjoyed the dialogue and the acting was really good. There was a definite a loud gasp when Hannah the sister gave a big reveal to her sister during the confrontation scene. As well as a few laughs. On the whole a very amiable film of love, loss, what if's and maybe's.

PS. Thank you to Prettyxcool for the tickets.

7.5/10

I had no idea it was always 11am. In fact this is the first time I've received a ticket to see one in Picturehouse in Cambridge, so not sure if it's a new addition or what (Cambridge didn't even show up in the list of cinemas on the after-show survey!) What's more the Picturehouse workers told us that it was 'guardian's fault somehow. Utterly confused...

I thought that particular Picturehouse sounded unfamiliar, so it could very well be the first time it's included in the screenings which explains why no one with a ticket in that area realised the time on it was wrong.

The reason your PH said it was a Guardian screening is because the code that needs to be entered on showfilmfirst.com to book tickets can be found in The Guardian (SFF is just a middle man).

It's a real shame you missed out, it might be worth it to contact Showfilmfirst about it still to explain the time on the ticket was incorrect.

I caught this yesterday at the Stratford Picture house and i personally thought it was great. A really mature crowd of people were in attendance and the story had a very intriguing premise and some great execution from the cast. I'd give it 8/10, here's my review-

mature crowd, mature crowd... I am starting to take it personally now

I'm sure he means emotionally mature.

Was at the Red private screening tonight at Soho House, drinks and popcorn were provided, but not the promised champagne and canapes. Soho House seemed to have fixed the projection reflecting off seats, as did not notice this tonight. Then when they were clearing up, as we were leaving he asked if the sound was ok, not too loud, so perhaps someone had complained before, as I did not find it loud at all. It was a shame that there were still 6 seats available, but lovely to see c-t and friend.

I loved this film. Clever and lovely humour, thought provoking, and very refreshing, so real and natural. The island scenery was just beautiful. It held my attention even though it was mainly three characters within a cabin. The strong cast had great chemistry together. Emily Blunt seems to get better in every film she makes. Emily Blunt and Rosemarie DeWitt were also well cast as sisters, and their bond was so believable. Mark Duplass was so genuine, funny and touching.

[spoiler]Great ending - left you guessing! I really, really wish, she was not pregnant, so they can all start afresh. Jack and Iris, and Hannah finds another guy to be her sperm donor![/spoiler]
