Wasn’t expecting this tear jerker, but wow. So. Many. Tears. Also doesn’t hurt that Hayden Christensen and Kevin Kline were both so hot.
love, love, love. this is one of my favourite movies ever, i will always come back to this one!
tbh I watched it bc it had hayden in it 💀 but it’s actually pretty good. nothing like extraordinary but I would watch it again 😲
I remember the Father and Son story being a powerful part of the movie and I always thought the house was super cool.
It’s a by the book drama, but it’s also a good one! Nothing special, but if you are in that mood, a pretty solid choice!
This was my favorite in high school. Sad and funny and beautiful. Also my introduction to the music of Guster. Still gives me feels!
This movie is one of my all time favorites
I didn't really care for this movie at all but I am glad I watch it
10 out of 10, my fav Kevin Kline film with an exceptional supporting cast
A fairly powerful indie drama that’s worth watching for almost anyone.
