Lovely & Amazing

I love Holofcener’s Walking & Talking so much; this movie, not as much. It’s good, but slight: Blethyn’s character felt underdeveloped; certain tangents that looked interesting weren’t followed up; it seemed like a series of sketches more than a story, but with that said, the sketches are very deft. The girl who plays Annie is outstanding, and so is Emily Mortimer, and while it’s kind of a trifle, it’s a worthwhile one. (10/23/05)
