一起在一起

导演兼编剧Nikole Beckwith通过意趣盎然的对话刻画人物性格，构建合理有趣的故事框架。故事讲的是原本生活轨迹平行的两个孤独的人，在一个特别的场合相知相识的故事。 故事从Matt (Ed Helms)面试代孕妈妈候选人Anna (Patti Harrison)开始。 Matt年逾40、APP开发者，单身但计划当爸爸； Anna：26岁，在咖啡店打工却梦想上大学，厌恶其原生家庭。。。。。她愿意通过代孕赚钱。

Beckwith fills the story with mild empathy, exploring insight in ways that are consistently fresh. There’s love and family and funny stuff here, and though none of it is quite the kind we’re used to seeing, all of it is wonderfully real. Together Together is a delivery that somehow feels comfortable and unique, both overdue and right on time.

By the end, there's a solid, real understanding of both of these characters—their dreams and fears and pains—and why—despite the age difference, contrasting attitudes, and everything else that separates them—such a genuine, meaningful bond would form between them. Helms is warm, sincere, and likeable as the hapless Matt. The character is, perhaps, clinging to the idea of life he once might have had, but he does earnestly want to start a family. Harrison's performance as the clever, often sardonic Anna, though, is the real revelation here. Anna is a young woman hiding years of hurt and sorrow beneath a cool, tough exterior, and it's moving to see how and when Harrison allows Anna some moments of openness to real pain, worry, and connection.

故事层层推进、感情最终在结局成推上完美的句点，尽管影片未达到精神升华。。。然而原著温柔推进、时不时在不经意间出现的幽默火花…. 让观看电影Together Together 过程快乐、享受^_^
