This sweet but grounded romantic drama follows the relationship between chef Almut (Florence Pugh) and divorced IT guy Tobias (Andrew Garfield), with all its moments of pure joy and utter heartbreak, from their first pure rom-com chance collision to the profound impact of a cancer diagnosis. This intimate film is droll, charming and heartwarming, delivered in a consistently gentle and largely credible way, floating along on a gorgeously ethereal soundtrack. Blessed with two superb lead actors in Pugh and Garfield, their relationship is almost hypnotically engaging through their finely-nuanced and unpretentious performances. With its non-linear storytelling cleverly adding extra pathos to events, the film is nevertheless simple and clear in its honesty and truthfulness, aided by its single-camera-style shooting. Quite simply, We Live In Time is a beautiful little slice-of-life film.
