Tully ... how did it make you feel? (**spoilers**)

I actually made it to the cinema (albeit by myself) to see it yesterday.

Having seen the trailers I was extremely excited to see it..........looking forward to laughs. And there were lots. The first part of the film was what I expected. Then there was "the twist". Then the ending.

I came away with a bag of mixed emotions.....sad for the character (and rl mums in that situation) that the demands of mothering could lead to "the twist". But I was encouraged that there was no relationship breakdown; a husband genuinely concerned for the well-being of his wife and doing his best. And I loved the overall message the film left me with; the importance of self-care, and doing parenting as a team.

I was quite emotional, and teary at times during it. Maybe it resonates as we have no family nearby and feel we are parenting by ourselves, with no-one to babysit and pretty much no couple time.

Just wondered how anyone else found it?

Oh, I thought this was the Tom Hanks film about the plane crash.

**Missed point

What's the twist?! I'm going to watch it and I need to know!

I don't want to say on here as there's no spoiler warning in the title but I'll pm you.

Oh my mistake there is a warning.

The twist is that there is no night nanny. It's her doing all the work and staying awake all night and the nanny is her imagination/hallucination manifested in her younger self. She is actually suffering from severe depression which becomes a psychosis.
