The Apology

by Wendy Ewan

When two old high school friends get together back home on Christmas break, it quickly becomes clear why they haven't tried harder to keep in touch over the years. Their focus on an old dispute begs the question: if we can't get past disagreements amongst friends, how can we possibly solve our country's bigger problems on a micro or macro level?

The Apology

    Love the sharply observed behavior here. The dance they do at the beginning before they get down to the real issues is wonderful. Also true to life, the way we can remember every detail of a closely held slight even years later. The end is sad, but totally justified.
