My rating: 7.5/10
Will I watch it again? No.
When I saw this a couple of years ago it was the first performance I'd seen of Dinklage outside of GAME OF THRONES (2011) and it was right after that I found out he was American. The crap you learn in weird ways. This independent film is delightful. It's rather quiet and relaxing to a degree for a lighthearted drama. I appreciate the casual pacing and tone. Dinklage plays Finbar with such reserve. Cannavale is a hoot. Good flick.
