Last night, I took me to SIFF Uptown for Splitsville, a sharp and witty exploration of divorce, reinvention, and the unexpected comedy of starting over. The film follows a couple in the messy aftermath of their split, navigating the chaos of modern love, awkward encounters, and the friends who take sides whether you want them to or not.
What struck me most was how it balances biting humor with genuine tenderness — reminding us that even in heartbreak, there’s a chance for growth, laughter, and maybe even a little redemption. Think ensemble energy, clever dialogue, and a very human look at what happens when “forever” doesn’t turn out the way we thought it would. If you’ve ever experienced a messy breakup — or been the friend caught in the crossfire — you’ll see yourself somewhere in this film. A witty, cathartic ride.
