“…refreshingly simple and good-natured…” –EFILM.COM

A new Cassavetes has come on board, and she’s a force to be reckoned with! In a staggeringly sharp role as Nora Wilder, liaison at a posh New York hotel, Parker Posey delivers a subtle, heartfelt performance as a young woman wading through loneliness. The classic story of a thirty-something’s search to find love and meaningful relationships is given a fresh face-lift with its down-to-earth characters and conversations. Her well-meaning mother (the always welcome Gena Rowlands) affectionately encourages Nora to jump into the dating scene, while married best-friend Drea Matteo is convinced she’s better off on her own. An unmistakably intense connection with the unflappable Julien, a Frenchman with a clear enthusiasm for living in the moment, stirs up Nora’s hopes, sifting through her cynicism and begging for a chance at love. Brisk and revitalizing, the breezy spin on this romantic comedy gives true meaning to looking inward to be content in our own skin.
