Quote:
"[In Spinster] writer Jennifer Deyell has fun with the tropes of the [rom-com] genre, scripting one scene composed entirely of Gaby's responses to first dates. Sample famous last words: 'I guess I never really listened to Rush.' Through the course of four seasons and one day—the film spans the protagonist's 40th year—we get humour, wistfulness and a degree of personal growth, all presented far more organically than most rom-coms even try to manage. Even nicer, its set firmly in [Andrea] Dorfman's hometown of Halifax."
