Goofs
(at around 1h 42 mins) The life-support system is disconnected from the throat. Before and after that scene, it is on, and working.

Quotes
Meredith: You don't have to tell me. I'm just some stupid kid. Probably wouldn't understand anyway, right?
Jonathan: I didn't say that.
Meredith: You didn't really say anything. Doesn't appear to be your strong suit.

Rather tedious

This film tells the story of a dysfunctional family, who is reunited by the terminally ill father's decision to pull himself off life support.

"Lullaby" is named quite the opposite of what it really is. It is a dark film with a lot of arguments and dysfunctional interactions. It is not easy to watch. The pacing is very slow, and I think the film can be a lot shorter, especially by cutting out the music scenes that are unnecessarily long. Jennifer Hudson is memorable as a nurse with attitude, I am quite unsure if nurses in the States really act like that! The ending speech by the daughter is very touching, but it is still not enough to save "Lullaby" as a tedious film.
