Our take
Eternity is a PG-13 A24 fantasy romcom about choosing a partner in the afterlife. Couples have clothed sex under blankets, with moaning and kink references. Drinking and drunkenness recur. An f-word and other profanity appear. Emotional themes about marriage and regret suit older teens more than tweens
Uplifting themes
Communication and choosing happiness over fantasy

Talk after watching
- Joan must pick between two husbands. What makes a lifelong choice fair?
- Heaven here is secular and funny. How do films shape ideas about death?
- Larry and Luke both love Joan differently. What counts as a good partner?
