Loss of love, trying to find it again…
there are very few romance or romantic comedies, which strike a real note for the audience, or anyone who appreciates reality and decent acting.

This film does have that. Sarandon is very good; she is a “down-at-heel” waitress, almost twenty years older than the character portrayed by Spader. Some of the interactions are amusing and sad. Her drinking, her loss of a child. Spader’s background is respectable, white-collar but bored, he meets Sarandon after missing his deceased wife.

Films like this are sometimes underrated. There was not a lot of hype about this film, which is one of the reasons I like it (We do not need Hollywood to tell us what’s good, i.e. “The Break Up”, which was actually not good).

While the scenes with Spader’s relatives were a bit stereotyped, overall there are a few good messages here. Life doesn’t always work out how we want, “perfect couples” aren’t necessarily happy, and the Spader character was actually quite good, not being the negative insensitive character here. Definitely worth viewing. 8/10.Read More
