Away We Go directed by Sam Mendes
Maya Rudolf and John Krasinski in Away We Go
I didn't know what to expect when this film began (especially as the first scene is quite....shall we say, confronting!), but first scene aside what I found was a delightfully quirky indie film about a 30-something couple who, suprised by news that they are expecting, hit the road to try to find a suitable place to bring up their family-to-be. The character-driven movie celebrates both the ordinary and the ridiculous, as the couple drop in on friends and relatives around America in their search for a place to nest. While preparing this blog, I came upon a few scathing reviews of this movie, but I've got to say, I liked it - alot!
good books, my bike, and all things nice
