Drama with some laughs and a twist, 28 January 2005

Author:

I saw this when it premiered at the Sundance film festival (although
the director & actors didn't bother to come to our screening), and I
enjoyed it. Kevin Costner plays a baseball player, but the movie is not
about baseball; it deals with the anger the lead character feels when
her husband disappears, along with his secretary. Joan Allen plays the
wife of the missing man, and is the mother to four daughters, played
very well by Evan Rachel Wood, Keri Russel, Erika Christensen, and
Alicia Witt. Joan Allen was marvelous. We laughed many times when she
glared in anger at different characters in the movie (and we were glad
she wasn't mad at US! LOL...) I have not been a big fan of Kevin
Costner in recent years, but thought that he did a great job as the man
who helps Joan Allen's character pick up the pieces. The
writer/director also has a role in the film as an older man who dates
Joan Allen's daughter. I thought the message of the film was delivered
well, and it was an entertaining story.
