CGiii Comment
Lifeless and badly written.
The better actresses are under-used and some performances are absolutely useless.
The constant incidental music is aggravating...as are most of the characters. Those who manage to see this through to the end are gluttons for punishment.
That said...it did win a few awards!
Trailer...
The(ir) Blurb...
The ex-wife of a Hollywood studio boss restarts her life after their divorce.
