Grief is among the most challenging of human emotions. It’s a coupling of despair at loss, the ennui of loneliness, and the fondness of memory. It is a persistence of love, but also an absence that can leave us scrambling to fill the void it has created. Eleanor the Great is a film marketed as a light-hearted dramedy about a nonagenarian forming an unlikely friendship with a twenty-something, and it is that, but it’s also a film about that void; how we approach and deal with it, and the lengths that some of us will go to fill it.
