10/10
A High Quality Relationship Drama
31 May 2019
Pretty Rosebud is a very interesting relationship drama about Cissy and Phil whose marriage is on the rocks. Phil has been unemployed for a long time and is seemingly depressed and unaffectionate with his wife Cissy, which leads her to seek that attention and affection outside their marriage.

Many relationship dramas have been done before, but Pretty Rosebud has unique extra layers in the form of added pressure both culturally and religiously to remain faithful, build a family, etc. Chuti Tiu gives a great performance in the lead role as Cissy and perhaps it is no surprise that she connected so well with the material since she is also the film's screenwriter. Pretty Rosebud had me interested the whole way through and I was very eager to find out what would end up happening to Cissy. If you're looking for a high quality indie drama, I'd highly recommend Pretty Rosebud! 10/10!
