I really wanted to like this film but at times I found it hard to hold my attention, however, there is still much to savour. It's a love letter to San Francisco, but also a real life take of how time and gentrification is changing cities and populations. Jimmie Fails and Jonathan Majors are great as the two men trying to hold on to an old property and looking for a way forward for themselves too; it's directed by Joe Talbot in a lyrical poetic style which is often marvellous, but the script and narrative is sometimes annoying and even pretentious, and even a little unbelievable too. That said, there is much to admire.
