  • Naomi Watts Grapples with a Great Dane and Greater Grief in The Friend

    2 months ago | pastemagazine.com | Jarrod Jones

    Listen to this article Your browser does not support the audio element. Grief’s dull, persistent ache informs much of Scott McGehee and David Siegel’s The Friend, yet it’s soothed by watching Naomi Watts buddy up with the world’s best dog.
