The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby: Her


IMDB
First time viewed: Yes
Current Release: Yes

An interesting experiment, a relationship drama of a couple struggling after the loss of a child, told as two films, one from each perspective. They share a small number of scenes albeit with subtle differences. Jessica Chastain's side I found to be the stronger of the two. Her character is the one going through the major changes. Each film stands alone just fine but it's only when seen together that you really get the full picture.

But apart from the gimmick it's a solid but simple drama. Great cast though.
