We Live in Time
A surprise encounter brings together a couple (Florence Pugh & Andrew Garfield), changing the course of their lives. Challenged by the limits of time, they learn to cherish each moment of their decade-spanning and movingly rare love story.

Pugh and Garfield are undoubtedly adorable and deliver excellent performances. The non-linear storytelling felt completely pointless, though. I really don’t get that decision. And it seemed like the last 30 minutes the film abandoned the non-linear format….so why use it? Maybe because it’s a rather standard bittersweet romance that’s engineered to try to get you to cry. (That’s not a dig. I enjoy those kinds of films when they work. This didn’t.) Worth a watch for Pugh and Garfield, but that’s all I came away with.
