What’s the movie about?
Lilly (Melissa McCarthy) and Jack Maynard (Chris O’Dowd) have lost their baby. The pain runs deep and threatens to tear the couple apart as they both deal with the loss in fundamentally different ways: While Jack retreats in his sorrow and falls into a dark hole, Lilly tries to get over it and see the positive side of life. But this is made more difficult by a small bird that takes up residence in her garden and gets on her nerves more and more every day. Slowly, Lilly gets more and more involved in the idea of driving the bird away or even killing it. But then she meets the eccentric ex-psychologist and veterinarian Larry (Kevin Kline). The two become friends and Lilly realizes that she must face her grief in order to feel pure joy in her heart again.

  1. Why can’t I find Brandi Carlile “The Last Time” anywhere? I love that song… and I cannot find it to hear it again or download it?

  2. All I’ve been doing is trying to search this song. I think it’s unfair that it’s not released yet as it’s in a fantastic film. It’s not even on the sound track which is weird as normally all sound tracks have all the featured songs on it. She has only just released a new album and this song isn’t on it. It’s a beautiful song and brandi carlile has such a beautiful voice. Anyone find it, please let me know.

  3. I see thereโ€™s been several people searching since the movie came out over 2 years ago. I just went on the same search and came across this. Thankfully I donโ€™t feel so insane now. However genius.com says it was released on September 24, 2021. I still canโ€™t find it anywhere, November 2023. It incredibly beautiful! For a song to have me searching this muchโ€ฆHAS to be amazing! Iโ€™m desperate, and devastated. ๐Ÿ™
