Elizabeth Olsen Soul’s Dilemma in New A24 Film: Choosing Between Lifelong Love and First Love

Deeply moving story of love, loss, and choice in the afterlife.
Imagine an afterlife where souls only have one week to choose their eternal destiny. That’s the premise of this touching tale, and it’s centred around Joan, played beautifully by Elizabeth Olsen. She finds herself at a crossroads, torn between two men who mean the world to her.
On one side is her lifelong partner, played by Miles Teller — the man she built her life with. On the other is her first love, portrayed by Callum Turner — who tragically died young and has been waiting patiently for her to join him for decades.
The film explores themes of love, loss, and the difficult choices we face when confronted with eternity. It’s a deeply emotional journey that made me reflect on what truly matters in life and beyond. Elizabeth Olsen delivers a stunning performance as Joan, capturing the pain and longing of someone caught between two worlds.
This story reminds us that love isn’t always straightforward — sometimes it’s about making impossible choices that define our very existence. I can’t wait to see how it unfolds on screen; it promises to be a moving exploration of what it means to truly choose your destiny.
