Something I notice when Zach Braff makes a movie is that he gives loving care and attention to every character. So many filmmakers put everything into their lead character and then every other character is just a 2D cut-out whose life and story revolves around that lead character in order for the film to function.
In fact so much care and detail goes into every character in 'A Good Person' that I don't actually know who the title is referring to. Obviously Florence Pugh gets the most screentime, but there are at least two other characters who you could argue are equally important to the film.
This is a heavy film. I've seen it referred to in places as "melodramatic" but I disagree with that. I think the situations these characters are dealing with are heavy enough that their interactions are fairly natural and justified. This was a good film, I enjoyed it a lot. 8.5/10.
