A Slice of Life

Rating: 10/10 (14 December 2006)

Nancy Meyers tells a story with depth and warmth. I felt like I was on this adventure with these two women who chose to swap homes. The character development and acting of the four principles was spot on as expected. However, I must mention the acting of the two little girls as they stood out as charming and real. But of most recognition would be the tender side story about screen writer Arthur Abbott, played so endearingly by Eli Wallach. Something about Nany Meyer's writing that truly touches upon the strength, yet tenderness of the heart. The scenery is beautiful, the direction is superb, and the music supervision is great. This is truly a holiday treat for the entire family to attend. Heartwarming. A holiday gift to yourself.
