We Don't Live Here Anymore

I can't remember how I first heard about this movie, but I'm so glad I did.

Its exactly the type of movie I fall in love with. The gritty, painful, tragic indie film with tremendous acting, realistic dialog and well developed characters. Mark Ruffalo could quite possibly be my new crush. Laura Dern is one of the most underrated actresses of our generation and despite how much I don't want to like her, Naomi Watts is fantastic. (I think she can out-act her BFF Nicole Kidman anyday... plus she's not going all Mommy Dearest with the eyebrows!) Peter Krause from Six Feet Under is effectively awkward and you find yourself just feeling sorry for him. This is another movie where no one is innocent (think Closer), and it doesn't sugar coat the raw emotion behind the characters actions. If you like these types of movies, I would check this one for sure.
