Here's everything you need to know to watch All of Us Strangers and see for yourself what the hype is all about.
What is All of Us Strangers about?
All of Us Strangersfollows lonely screenwriter Adam (Andrew Scott) whose blossoming romance with his similarly lonesome neighbor Harry (Paul Mescal) takes place alongside a deep inner journey into his own past. Part of that journey includes confronting the childhood trauma of his parents' death in a car crash when he was only 12. He takes a trip back to his unoccupied childhood home only to find his parents preserved as they were, which offers him an unexpected chance to get to know them as an adult.
It's a "moving example of how cinema can fold tragedy and catharsis into one," writes Siddhant Adlakha in his review for Mashable.
