Premise: Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter. Family and friendship. Love and warmth. Joy and sadness. Hope and despair. Companionship. Loneliness. A birth. A death. Time passes... A happily married, middle-aged couple is visited by a number of friends who use them as confidants.
Rated PG-13 for some language. 129 min.
Oscar chances ? Pretty decent for picture, and Lesley Manville won the National Board Of Review for Best Actress, so she may have a chance in one of the actress categories. Screenplay has an outside chance as well.
