Genres & Description

Comedy Drama

6.2 / 10

Feeling trapped in the stifling, wealthy enclave of Westport, Connecticut, Anders Harris (Ben Mendelsohn) retires from his job in finance and leaves his wife (Edie Falco) in the hopes that it will renew his lust for life. However, he's quickly faced with the startling reality of his choices; he spends his days looking for things to decorate his empty shelves, sleeping with strangers and feeling terribly lost. Missing his ex-wife and on the outs with his troubled 27-year-old son (Thomas Mann), Anders befriends a drug-addicted teen (Charlie Tahan), sending him down a path of reckless and regrettable behavior. His shameful actions cause him to question who he is as a father and, ultimately, who he is as a person.

Wow, whoever set up that turtle tank knew less about turtles than I do. It's not a fish!! It needs only enough water to take a little swim in. Turtles need both soil and water. - @Saturday, November 10, 2018 5:17 PM

I always have trouble with these “woe is us upper middle class” mellow dramas. We all already know what the charters are going to find out by the end of the film: that everything is ok. - @Sunday, September 23, 2018 7:10 PM

Great film. Good points all in place. Everyone in here just criticizing it. Get a life. You’re all missing the point because you’re all misaligned. Peanut gallery mainstream audience. Go hit the mall megaplexes for your much needed battle loud seamless and pointless films. Netflix is doing a remarkable job with these. Ugh!! - @Monday, September 17, 2018 1:21 AM

Repeal the 19th MGTOW

Pushing Female directors and producers who are putting out shallow and superficial dramas that are mainly about "How a guy can make life better for woman." Another guy acting like he's inferior to a chick in the date scene also. Wish we could get deeper content about things that are more macro in scope. Female producers tend to be very shallow and micro in content. The Talented Mr. Ripley is probably one of the only novels written by a woman that I can remember really touched on deeper subjects than this post-Modern Feminist BS. - @Sunday, September 9, 2018 12:10 AM
