When Joan Weldon discovers she is dying of lung cancer, she sets out to reconcile her dysfunctional relationships with her three children, her husband, and along the way, her former best friend. The family's destructive ways are offset by messy and somewhat humorous attempts by Joan to set her children on the right course before she dies. In this big dysfunctional mix, they will all learn to connect in their own ways, and realize on their own terms what life is about.

Isn't It Delicious Audience Reviews

Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
Humbersi The first must-see film of the year.
Maleeha Vincent It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
Josephina Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
ldeweerd-1 This lovely film proves that you don't need millions of dollars to make a compelling movie, just a story and characters that the audience can invest in and care about. For my taste, there are never enough films featuring a strong, complex woman in a leading role, let alone a woman over 50, and the marvelous Kathleen Chalfant gets to shine here, along with an outstanding supporting cast. This film is equal parts funny and touching and was clearly made with tremendous care and passion, which is evident on the screen. Highly recommended!
kkonig "Isn't It Delicious?" The answer is yes! The cast is led by the luminous Kathleen Chalfont who manages to create a character cantankerous and irritating and endearing at the same time. The film is not always easy to watch, as it should be when dealing with death and dying, but as also it sparkles also with humor, well, you laugh, you cry. Particularly amusing was the comic use of the theme from "2001: A Space Odyssey", presumably a tribute to the handsome and engaging Keir Dullea who plays Ms. Chalfont's long suffering husband. Kudos to director, Michael Patrick Kelly for his light touch and for what I understand is a husband and wife producing team of Mr. Kelly and Suzanne Hayes, who also has a delightful cameo as the fun and frothy lesbian side-kick to Ms. Chalfont's character's lesbian daughter. Here's to indie films!
Vivian Fransen This movie made me laugh way more than cry, which is precisely what we all need to do in today's world.The cast is extraordinary--all the women are beautiful. Extraordinary filmmaking, with attention to lots of details. The script is stellar. The story moved me.I applaud this marvelous work. It certainly takes lots of talented people to make such a film. Among the special touches are an homage to 2001: A Space Odyssey and many other unexpected twists and turns.I recommend others treat themselves for a satisfying film experience. You'll be glad you did.
ClodaghBowyer I loved this movie! I was laughing & crying all the way through. The story itself was so original and refreshingly honest. Very different. I was blown away by the acting. The cinematography was just gorgeous. Kathleen Chalfant is not only one of the most physically beautiful woman to ever walk the face of the earth, but also one of the most mesmerizing, transcendent actors I have ever seen. I have always enjoyed watching her on stage, so to get to see her on film was such a treat. That said, the whole ensemble was crazy good! Even the smaller roles were stacked deep. For instance, Suzanne Hayes was hysterically funny, & totally right on the money, so authentic. The authenticity in this film was poignant. Wonderful wonderful movie! Director Michael Patrick Kelly is one of the best. What a masterpiece he created with his producer wife, Suzanne Hayes. I've seen some of their documentary work, which is also incredible and makes them the cream of the crop. It is inspiring to see a husband/wife (Suzanne Hayes produced) team collaborate all through both of their lives & continue to take risks and raise the bar for this art form!
