On Christmas Eve, a wealthy and single workaholic (Nicolas
Cage) is transported into an alternate life: the middle-class existence he would have if
he'd married his college girlfriend (Téa Leoni). Also with Jeremy Piven, Don Cheadle,
Troy Hall, Harve Presnell, Saul Rubinek, Josef Sommer, Peter Lassiter, Paul Sorvino, Lisa
Thornhill and Francine York. [2:02]
SEX/NUDITY 4 - A woman begins undressing, then she and a man begin kissing
as she talks about having sex since the children are asleep (her tank top and her dress,
in a later scene, show cleavage). A few more kissing scenes with talk about having sex (in
one of the scenes the woman grabs the man's clothed behind). A couple of kisses a number
of times as the man leaves for his plane. We see a woman's bare back and her underpants as
she pulls her dress up; she's talking to a man in bed about how good their lovemaking just
was. A woman opens her coat to reveal her slip underneath as she talks about the couple
making love. We see a man in his briefs a few times, a woman wearing a cleavage-revealing
dress, a baby's genitals as he urinates without his diaper on, and a woman showering (her
bare buttocks and breasts are briefly although vaguely visible through the opaque shower
door).
VIOLENCE/GORE 3 - A man threatens two people with a gun, two men briefly
shove each other, and a man drives recklessly and nearly hits a bus (this scares his
passenger).
PROFANITY 5 - One F-word, a couple of anatomical references, a few
scatological references, and some mild obscenities. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Marriage, career, life choices, regret.
MESSAGE - Sometimes what might have been would have been best.
