U.S. indie film. Ran on TV. As the employee learns
Stanley, that his wife was killed in Iraq, he does not know how to teach the two twelve-year-old and eight daughters, and gets into an emotional declaration of emergency. He takes the first girl with a spontaneous, day-long car trip to an amusement park. What looks at first like an act of cowardice proves to be in the later stages as the only proper way to address the matter.
Stanley feels himself to be overwhelmed Loser, and he is estranged daughters. The absent mother, he can not replace. This remaining family is like not another suitable piece of work. Before he can tell the girls the news of his death, he has clearly come first even with the news, then become a real father, the only point of reference and emotional center, go to a position of unconditional love, from which he can collect his daughters. On an instinctive, unplanned way, the stiff, stooped extensive, clumsy acting authoritarian Republicans the loving father. Actor John Cusack is undergoing a transformation as impressive as unspectacular, which is completely free of political implications, but is seen purely human. At first he was hardly seen, in the end it looks like the guy after all John Cusack, as one is accustomed to it. Not the rock and rollers from High Fidelity , no, of course, but relaxes, relaxed, absolutely gentle to the daughters, who initially seemed more likely for him to be a problem. In between we learn a lot about the guy is either built correctives (his brother-student liberal stroll) or it can even out the unpleasant and the types of early understandable. Guilt about their own shortcomings as play a significant role.
A delicate, small home-front film with impressive acting performances, not just the Cusack, but also those of the two young actresses. Purpose, a road movie-image design of the old school and a todtrauriger soundtrack by none other than Clint Eastwood.
