Wolff rating: NOT BAD
Plot summary: Gen-Xer trapped at home over a summer with his invalid mother tries to keep himself sane.
Biased, pithy comments: A movie about the abused American family, the two-body problem, about young love, about just about anything angstful. I wasn't moved or inspired by it, but I was always interested---the relationships were so twisted and the characters so unpredictable that it held your attention.
Other Notes: Independent.
How many times I have seen it: x1
