I was unfortunately unable to catch "Past Lives" at the cinema last year upon release, so was happy to see it's release on Netflix given it's nomination for Best Picture. 

I really enjoyed "Past Lives", it is a very well acted, simple & understated love story that does not go down the usual trope infested roads these movies usually take. 

It was 1 hour 45 mins but whizzed by as you are so engaged in the story of these long lost friends.

Verdict: Matched Expectations
