Linoleum on Hulu. Jim Gaffigan's a very good actor.
Rhea Seehorn was excellent too. They all were. I really appreciate this film.

(26,655 posts)Very good! Why have I not heard of this film?

(26,655 posts)For those who've seen it, I have a question about what actually happened.
Scroll down.
The way I interpreted the film is Jim Gaffigan's character was dying. And the whole rest of the movie was basically his life, plus some distorted views of what actually occurred. Is that how you saw it?

I hadnt thought of that! I thought he was falling into dementia, which we could think of as a type of death as well.
What did you make of the little boy?

Thanks for talking about it with.
