Rated R
Aspiring novelist Sam, on a way to a meeting he stumbles upon Rasheen. Debating on whether to send the boy back to foster or not, Sam takes the child in and learns a few lessons on life.
I really enjoyed this film probably because I saw myself in Annie, the best friend of Sam. What she longs for is something that I long for and I understood her perceptions. I didn’t think it was trite or vague in the story. I felt it run at an even pace and I understood what each character was struggling with. The acting was superb: Josh Radnor, Malin Akerman, and Michael Algieri. It’s on my don’t miss list of movies.
Thanks for the review–it’s on my list of movies-to-watch too.
