But its those aspects that make it first rate. One might try to deny it, but NSW is portrayed close to how life really is for most of us; seemingly unsatisfying, yet in the end, rewarding. Throw in the fetching and talented Hope Davis, you have a five-star film. Victor Argo, Robert Klein and Philip Seymour Hoffman shine in supporting roles. Watch it with an open mind!

It has some depth of introspection but not excessive. It has to do with a young woman who is finding her way from a failed relationship into finding what she really wants. Her mother gives her a push to "find" it for her, with the result giving her the opportunity to figure out what she doesn't want and why. Too many "coincidences" for real life, but still overall a nice movie. Guys probably won't enjoy it. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

1 out of 2 people found this review helpful This isn't just slow, it doesn't go anywhere, honestly, the description of this movie actually takes place in the final 7-minutes. And I mean it when I say, nothing happens, nor does it ever happen. it had the ingredients to be a good indy film too, it just never happened.WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||
