Hook

I know this is a bit controversial, but I feel like Voicemails for Isabelle did a pretty good job on showing a grieving sibling and what it's like to grieve and still find joy, still find happiness, but also be missing that person that was like another part of you. Honestly, did a good job. I think there's a lot of back and forth reviews on this about people saying who are grieving siblings saying that they didn't do a good job or they didn't really truly show grieving. And I don't think they ever really can show somebody's grieving and it be a universal thing because everybody's grief is different. There is like a universal component to it, but I think everybody is different and how everybody processes that. From my perspective, they did a good job on showing the joy that you try to find while you are grieving, a sibling specifically. I don't know what it's like to lose a sibling to CF, and I do know what it's like to lose a sibling to addiction. So, vice versa, I don't think somebody who lost a sibling to CF will know how it is to lose a sibling to addiction. There's a lot of controversy in that that they they didn't show it how they expected it to be, but I also think that they did a good job with showing how she went to go make her food truck with her sister's college fund that her parents gave her and how she still went on dates and still found joy in like the little things that she tried to do throughout her grief and in that time period that they showed. And I think that they did a pretty good job because as somebody who is a grieving sibling, I feel guilty sometimes for finding joy in those moments and being shown that that that's normal. I guess in a way of Hollywood and in movies and stuff, it was kind of like reassuring that like not that I'm grieving right, but that it's okay to grieve how I am grieving. So I think that's that was pretty cool about that.
