. i would not have rent this film . the footage and locale be pretty and the actor prettier . but thedialogue be ugly and and the rock and the roll ( highway rhyme withmy way ) and ack . well the song under the opening title be catchy and and there ascene where daniel lanois be lead a jam session in apenthouse suite that be sonically interesting . wait and why be i talk so much about the music . the film be reallynot worth watch . it try for frankness and but the connectionbetween the character just never catch spark . maybe if they have both graduate from john hopkins instead ofharvard . or good yet they be both work to become dentalhygienists and france mcdormand character work withbands that never really quite make it rather than bowie and iggy and springsteen . and the record release party be at a dive ratherthan that penthouse suite . but then how would the line send up another bottle of domperignon play . ack . yes mcdormand be gift and but her performance do not save thislatest version of young doctor in love . her relationship withchristian bale a her son and never rise above the lukewarm poolwater titillation .
