Month of Sundays
One night real estate agent Frank Mollard (Anthony LaPaglia) gets a phone call from his mother. Nothing out of the ordinary apart from the fact that she died a year ago! It turns out to be a wrong number, but the two characters develop a real human connection that was missing from both their lives.

[Director Saville has] given LaPaglia a role so good that it conjures up comparisons with his terrific work in Ray Lawrence's Lantana 15 years ago.

The film is slow and boring, with the story weighed down by pointless scenes and a regular hollowness that saps the energy out of the piece.

"A Month of Sundays" is so tidily plotted, so committed to its improve-thyself epiphanies, that it never transcends its own artifice.

It's a film about letting go, which may not sound very sexy, but Saville plays out this concept on a personal, intimate and relatable level that is powerful and moving.

Beautifully mounted, subtle, touching and bitter-sweet comedy drama... a thoughtful, moving, leisurely paced tale about loss and moving on.

A quiet, tender-hearted and gently eccentric affair, the Australian-made A Month Of Sundays takes its own sweet time finding a way into your good graces.

Meandering through a variety of relationship issues, A Month Of Sundays doesn't really hits its stride until the end
February 17, 2016
This modest, warmhearted character study is carried by a solid lead performance from Anthony LaPaglia, who plays a man unable to express his feelings through anything but underhanded snark.

We used to make more films like this, with a brain and a heart. Saville shows that we still can.
