"Frank is first-generation working class, a retired guy with cardiac and respiratory problems through having put in long, hard hours in a factory creating the PVC casing for telephone wires. His dedicated work and education ethic have put his children through college and into what Frank understands to be rewarding careers. But David (Austin Lysy), Rosie (Drew Barrymore), Amy (Kate Beckinsale) and Robert (Sam Rockwell) disappoint him dreadfully, one by one, by claiming to be too busy to come home for the family barbecue that Frank had been preparing. Only now does Frank understand that it was his late wife who had the relationship with the children."/P.Bradshaw,guardian.co.uk,25 02 10/
And what about my opinion?My view is that's a story on humans alienation in our "high-thech" civilization.Nevertheless, the main point of this film isn't in the story/plot/ but in the way of directing and photographing.The artificial approach of mister Jones and mister Braham leads us towards the strong impression of human's lonely.The luxury is maybe good for our nerves but our souls very often become empty.
Is it only my impression?Do I make the mistake?Your opinion sounds identical?
