The Upside Of Anger

Who's in it? Kevin Costner, Joan Allen, Alicia Witt, Evan Rachel Wood
What's it about? An affluent suburban wife and mother experiences everything from utter sadness to absolute joy after he husband walks out.
What type of film is it? Comedy Drama
Is it any good? Suprisingly, yes. I don’t know how it managed it but while other films of this genre slip into a pit of sugary sweet sentimentality or token “sisters are doing it for themselves” feminism, but this avoids that – with style. Even Kevin Costner is entertaining! Funny, sad and everything in between. Watch this.
