The best thing about As They Made Us, written and directed by Mayim Bialik is its pronounced lack of judgment. An indie dramedy is heavy on the drama that fully understands each person has their reasons for doing what they do; it doesn’t make all actions okay or even bearable after a while but rather just truthfully captures life’s complexities like no other film I’ve seen before!
The film “ Darkness Before Dawn ” is a heart-wrenching story about family members taking care of each other when one becomes disabled or ill. Dianna Agron stars as Abigail, who must manage her sickly father’s (Dustin Hoffman) transition into hospice care while also dealing with stubborn mother Candice Bergen and Nathan—her brother who left years ago without saying goodbye; all during the time in which tension builds between them because he has never come back since then.
The pain of their parent’s relationship is felt in every scene in Bergen and Agron is present. They each give an excellent performance as the lead, with Nathan being particularly compelling during his flashbacks to abuse at hand from both sides; while he often emerges injured (both physically or emotionally), there’s no doubt that this young man has grown beyond such wounds because deep down inside–in those moments where we glimpse some sense into what makes him human -you can tell it comes straight outta evil itself
The actor’s performance is smart because it allows more than just a few pockets of brevity, mostly in the reactions of cutting Bergen and an exasperated Agron.
Hoffman’s presence in the film is minimal, but his crumbling present-day scenes give way to an interesting parallel that Agron must face. Even assholes get old eventually! Bialik captures moments with stilted camera work and characters who offer plenty for audiences to consume; however, at times it feels like they’re not quite reaching their potential which keeps things from being as powerful or intimate enough–although Helberg does play against Agron nicely here where you see how these two embody what remains after decades worth of decisions gone wrong between them grow apart due only
The film is an interesting take on the lives and careers of some well-known actors. Bialik has been in front of cameras her whole life, which shows through when you watch this movie as she knows exactly what makes good cinema (trust). One can notice how much trust there was between herself or any other actor/actresses involved with filming because their performances never felt forced; everything just flows naturally from scene to next without anything feeling too overcooked like some would think happening during post-production time
The picture of the couple in As They Made Us is ultimately an unhappy one. There are no clean resolutions, only messy feelings left hanging between them after their relationship has ended – which perhaps makes this more realistic than we would like to think? The author explores what it means for someone who loved somebody but did not receive enough love back; or how complaints and sins can fuel us when our time limit’s up without any easy solutions offered up by way side-the road JPEGs on Instagram stories (whatever those maybe).
