Gloria is a 50-something divorcée living in Los Angeles, where she spends her days in the office and her nights in the club. When she suddenly begins a new relationship, she must reckon once again with the complicated nature of dating, identity, and family. A remake of the 2013 film GLORIA.

Moore’s performance means that we are with Gloria every step of the way, sharing in the little victories and the jolting setbacks.
Moore’s compassionate performance confirms the strength of the original and its beloved heroine’s universal appeal. More than that, Gloria Bell proves that the best stories can be told endlessly, so long as they’re told well.
The Guardian by Gwilym Mumford
It’s an engaging, inventive cover version.
Although García and Moore were born in the same year (under the same sign!), Lelio is more mature now than he was when he made the original film, and he brings that experience to the project in small but crucial ways.
The Hollywood Reporter by Stephen Dalton
Crucially, like its predecessor, Gloria Bell maintains a warm but rigorously unsentimental tone despite material which could easily lend itself to mawkish sentimentality.
You can love “Gloria” and still think that Gloria Bell is an admirable reimagining that stands on its own while paying tribute to the original.
Moore plays Gloria with a twinkle in her eye that makes her lovable and a yearning for connection that makes her relatable.
