This is a very realistic portrayal of friends getting together, supposedly for their high school reunion, but mainly for themselves. There are some excellent conversations, especially between Marty and Willie (Natalie Portman and Timothy Hutton) and great acting all around, even to David Arquette for his small role as Willie's brother. This movie has tons of good moments, like the "Sweet Caroline" scene and the snow plow scenes. I hope everyone gets a chance to see this film!
