Life During Wartime (2009)


Less depressing than the usual Todd Solondz but still veering on the darker side of love, life and everything. A range of weird and wonderful issues ranging from disturbing to funny affect the family and friends depicted in this film. A collection of excellent actors help create sympathy and genuine care for these characters suffering but continuing on. Allison Janney is outstanding, obviously, this woman can play anyone convincingly. An interesting study of the world, people in it, fears and realizations and how humans carry on.


Like This Watch These: Short Cuts (1993) A weekend in L.A. full of character, Weiner-Dog (2016) The different people that look after this pup, Storytelling (2001) Dysfunction at school and college.
