The Savages

Categories: All Films, Marquee
Average Rating:

My Rating:
Run time: 113 min.
An irreverent, hilarious and heartbreaking story revolving around a modern American family, The Savages portrays an all-too-common dilemma: after drifting apart emotionally and geographically over the years, two siblings Wendy and Jon must band together to care for an elderly parent who never cared for them. Slums of Beverly Hills writer/director Jenkins, working from her well observed script, avoids histrionics and secures sparkling, authentic performances from her immensely talented cast.
