... View MoreHannah Miles (Rebecca Hall) is struggling after the death of her folk singer husband Hunter. She lives alone in rural Maine. She is angry when Andrew McCabe (Jason Sudeikis) from Hofstra University shows up looking to write about Hunter. She claims to be writing his biography but it's not turning out good. She reluctantly asks Andrew to co-write with her.I like everybody here. The characters are nice. There is potential for a good rom-com. Andrew has a perfectly good relationship with Finley which leaves any romance with Hannah next to impossible. It would work so much better if that is off the table. A jealous Joe Manganiello has one good scene. He could have done so much more. There could be flashbacks to show the drama and the romance of the marriage. There are missed opportunities everywhere. This could be a much better indie dramedy.
... View MoreI knew nothing about this movie and initially saw just a few minutes, which left me wondering about the chemistry between Hannah and Andrew. However - once I sat down and watched completely through, I got it. Both characters have depth and Rebecca Hall kills it as Hannah. She's perfectly cast in every way possible. While they seem to come from different worlds, Andrew realizes that Hannah is his match in intellect and wisdom. I'm not a winter person, much prefer the warm weather, but found myself being drawn to the cold Maine climate that is such a part of this story. It's as if the frigid world provides a warmth to the grief and loss Hannah has experienced. There's a wittiness in the film, but again, also a seriousness to what the main characters are dealing with. This is truly a classic romantic comedy with some deep and thoughtful lines. Would like to have seen this on the big screen, but very glad I stumbled onto it anyway!
... View MoreWatched this on VuDu on 2/20/16 and it was an engaging heartfelt movie that drew us in at the start, but then it began a slow agonizing death by the mid-point and by the end of the movie we were praying for the end. Any end. Just end it. The movie just falls apart in the second half. Almost as if the ending production was rushed because everyone was bored or ran out of interesting things to say and do on screen. There are so many wasted story lines in this movie that just seem to start, do nothing, mean nothing, and go absolutely nowhere. The only character that seemed to engage and hold our attention was the one played by Jason. 5/10. And I am being generous.
... View MoreIf you want to take a little nap and need to fall asleep quickly - just start this movie and be assured you will tumbledown into sleepy head rest. This story of the widowed Hannah living her secluded life in the back country of Maine is so slow and boring and lifeless you will join them in their lethargic existence and your nap will be upon you quickly.The poor grieving widow Hannah certainly has no trouble getting 'it' from the horny local power company worker who always shows up with a little gift in exchange for 'it'. Then Andrew shows up and the story aptly tumbles-down from that point on. Even Blythe Danner can't keep this story or movie awake! To be more than honest, yes I did fall asleep watching this one hour and forty-five minute flick, and I wasn't remotely sleepy when I started watching. Neither am I compelled to watch it again because it's just so boring.Just another example of a big budget flop with the actors walking through their parts because they seemed equally bored and obviously did it for the money.
