Neither With You

Running time: 90 mins

Gergo is a film critic who loves women, but to his mother's dismay (she wants a grandchild) he finds none of them perfect enough. When he is told Mom will die in a couple days, he pays his pregnant – and amazingly imperfect – new neighbor to pretend the child is his, so Mom can die happy. But she doesn't die, and now he has to continue the charade. Building on a classical rom-com premise (water and oil don't mix), this blithe comedy with a big heart hits all the right marks and then some (such as the MOST unusual way Mom's delightful anxiety-prone doctor deals with it). A romp full of laughs­­– and the distinct possibility of some happy tears.– Karel Kohout
