A picture-perfect life is shattered when Andy Garcia
discovers his wife's (Meg Ryan) alcoholism. The couple must then work on putting the
shards back together.
SEX/NUDITY 4 - Some passionate kisses and lots of hugging, and a few oblique
references to a poor sex life. One scene presumably ends up in a couple having sex, but we
only see them rolling around on the floor. Ryan is shown naked through a shower door
although not much is seen, and her bare behind is shown later (she is obviously completely
naked, but all else is covered).
VIOLENCE/GORE 3 - Ryan and Garcia "egg" a car, Ryan falls into
water and is shown unconscious, Ryan falls through a shower door -- no blood is shown, but
her face is bruised. Ryan and Garcia yell at each other a lot, and at their young
daughters a few times. Ryan slaps her young daughter across the face. And, the violence of
alcoholism and detoxification is shown.
PROFANITY 6 - About 12 F-words, about 8 scatological terms and a few milder
profanities. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Child abuse, parental abandonment, alcoholism, therapy,
separation and divorce.
MESSAGE - Sometimes you just can't help your loved ones; you have to let
them help themselves.
