‘The Good House’ Plays Like an Alcoholism Themed Rom-Com

AUDIO – FILM REVIEW –

Dec. 9, 2022 – After introducing us to a cast of supporting characters who seem like figures out of a Hallmark Channel adaptation of Sherwood Anderson’s “Winesburg, Ohio”, the film jumps to the middle of a family intervention.

Sounds like a sobering drama, right? However, as directed by Maya Forbes and Wallace Wolodarsky (who co-wrote the screenplay, based on Ann Leary’s 2013 bestseller, with Thomas Bezucha), the fraught subject gets puts on the back burner in favour of rustic charm.
