Watched "A Real Pain" on Hulu [View all]

and thought it was wonderful. Jesse Eisenberg, (who also wrote and directed) and Kieran Culkin are cousins who go on a Holocaust tour of Poland and reminisce about their departed Jewish Grandma along the way. Beautifully written, acted and photographed, with the music of Chopin along for the ride. Funny, moving and thoughtful. Culkin deserves the Oscar for his complex performance. Loved it.
