The Savages

Fox Searchlight's The Savages



The Screen Door: "Brutally honest with a small dash of humor thrown in, once again, Philip Seymour Hoffman shines alongside Laura Linney who continues to devour all of the prime roles of women going through a mid-life crisis. It’s not an easy film to watch, but it’s an important one. The humor is very faint and as harsh as the story is, it doesn’t quite make it to the top tier of filmmaking, but still damn good." Rating: B

IMDb:
"A sister (Linney) and brother (Hoffman) face the realities of familial responsibility as they begin to care for their ailing father."
