This film is one day in the
life of three people in a Long Island neighborhood on an autumn day. John is going on a business trip and
he’s been fighting with his wife.
They have a young daughter.
Peggy is asked by her actress neighbor to take her to the ferry. Peggy becomes upset when the neighbor
starts crying in Peggy’s car but she won’t discuss why she’s crying? Christina is late for the bus and she
was trying on her mother’s bracelet that is a gift for her mother’s
birthday. Christina doesn’t have
time to take off the bracelet and she loses it on the way to school.
Many times I could
guess what was going to happen before it happened? The three stories never intersect with each other? There doesn’t seem to really be much
going on in any of the stories? I
thought this was a waste of good actors and a waste of my time!! 1 ½* (I really didn’t like this movie)
