however this owes a lot to the film Grand Canyon

Rating: 10/10 (2 January 2006)

Excellent film and cast but derivative of the film Grand Canyon (1991?) by Laurence Kasdan- or am I getting to the age were all film plots are repeated with subtle differences?,as is most of the current music scene! Very moving , although some of the "set pieces" were flagged up well in advance! I find this a feature of most USA films and TV,( exceptions being the superb output of HBO) as if we can not work out the connections for ourselves, whether it be comedy or drama. I did like the way each of the characters had the potential for good and bad in them, making them more believable as real people, the soundtrack also complemented the scenes well.
