Rated R for language, some sexuality and brief drug use
110 min
Award worthy ? I have read where Phoenix and Paltrow give one of their best performances.

About Me
- No Bad Movies
- Started to really pay attention to film ( movies ) what was going on in front of the camera, but more interestingly, behind it as well at about as far back as age 10. Motion pictures ( when good ) are a fascinating medium. All the work and prep that goes into filmmaking. It's an amazing process !
