feeling listless

Review! A Cool Dry Place is a startling film in many ways, not least because for a piece of such gentle genius it's amazing that not more people are aware of it. Vince Vaughn is a single tied between the needs of his son and the need to live his own life. He's fallen for Joey Lauren Adams (who could blame him) and everything is going swimmingly until his ex-wife Monica Potter shows up. It's an intelligent film filled with nice performances and strikingly ironic moments. Think 'The Closer You Get' with a faster pace and lawyers.
