Résumés(1)

A beleaguered family matriarch has subordinated her needs and desires to those of her family, particularly her cold, demanding husband. Her sudden death brings her entire clan together and triggers a series of flashbacks that reveal how the seeds of today's discontent were planted years earlier. While family is hard to live with, it is impossible to live without. (texte officiel du distributeur)

anglais A distinctive and sensitively conceived drama with an excellent cast that brings nothing new to the field of family or relationship studies, but is still more than a good addition to the category. A pleasant, modest, intimate first feature by Dennis Lee. ()

anglais I wanted to write a really nice exhaustive review about this movie, and thoroughly analyze it, but I usually write my reviews after a few days and after three days I practically had no idea what to write about. The film completely disappeared from my head. There was only an unpleasant memory of boredom and a feeling of zero identification with the movie characters. It has a decent cast, but otherwise, this typical festival movie missed the mark for me. Overall impression: 25%. ()

anglais I really enjoyed this glimpse into the life of an American family. As a father, Willem Dafoe was as pleasant as a pain in the ass, Emily Watson was great as usual, and Ryan Reynolds' performance was greatly improved by his full beard. I only wish the creators had developed some of the issues they had brought up instead of leaving it up to me to figure out the rest. I certainly wouldn’t mind if the film was slightly longer, I liked it a lot. ()
