"The Squid And The Whale" (Sony Pictures, 2005)
Tight script, excellent acting, really depressing. Noah Baumbach directs this powerful, uncomfortable film about an ugly divorce, a story that will ring true with parents, but particularly with the children of divorced parents. Laura Linney is great (as usual), while seeing the eternal puppydog Jeff Daniels go against character and play a narcissistic jerk is something of a revelation. The younger actors who play their troubled sons are both also quite good. Recommended!
