Worth a listen, Simple but interesting story.

An insight into the characters lives through direct dialogue. Strong performances and an unexpected ending.

Authentic realness

Great listen. Makes you feel like you're ease dropping a private late night conversation, while riding home on the ride on the A train.

Good performances, but nothing happens

A sweet little love story, but nothing actually happens at all. Waste of an hour really
