‘The Starling’ Wasn’t Offensive To Me As A Bereaved Mother “As someone who lost a child in the same way as the couple in the movie, I couldn't help but notice the similarities between my husband and me and Jack and Lilly.”
We saw Jack using untimely not-so-funnies at the mental health facility as a way to cope. And speaking as a mom who has lost a child to SIDS, it didn’t offend me in the slightest bit. If I thought anything, it was that I respected the way ‘The Starling’ dived into the taboo topic of a father’s perspective on grief in a way few films have in the past.as the one who is spiraling down the rabbit hole following the loss of a child.
Jack and Lilly’s daughter had died over a year ago, and I wonder if skeptics took note of this. Moreover, this film’s setting wasn’t during a period that would display the excruciatingly outward signs of mourning that are most visible in those early days of grief. Sure, their pain was still raw and more painful than you can imagine and probably always will be to some degree. But bereaved parents can’t cry every day, all day, and forever. At some point, you have to pick up the broken pieces.
To those that would say ‘The Starling’ is an awkward depiction of grief, I’d like to remind them that grief itself is awkward.
