    When I left the theater, I felt I had not breathed for 2 hours 10 minutes! It was breath-taking! What a veiw of our past, our traditions, our crutches (what mom doesn't have nervous conditions), and the beauty of people who are REAL. I loved Sutherland's …more»

    Laurl Canyon is so far one of the best to come out this year. Frances McDormand is great, think Penny Lane from Almost Famous 30 years later as a record producer and you have McDormand in this movie. And a memorable performance by Alessandro Nivola as …more»
