Since her husband Jack [Chris O'Dowd] has admitted himself after a suicide attempt, Lily [Melissa McCarthy] has to come to terms with the death of their daughter Kate. This is difficult for her both at work and during her visit to Jack, so Lily is advised to talk to Dr. Larry Fine [Kevin Kline]. However, it turns out that he is no longer a psychologist, but a veterinarian and is initially not eager to help Lily. The title refers to a starling that has built a nest in Lily's garden and regularly (literally) flies into her hair. O'Dowd and McCarthy, who have become known as comedians, once again prove themselves to be excellent dramatic actors in this sharply observed, sometimes funny, but above all very moving drama about three people who have become stuck in the past.

It looked promising beforehand, but it was very disappointing. It is a virtually meaningless film about grief processing. The aggressive starling hardly adds anything to the gloomy story.
