I rented this movie over this last weekend. I wasn't expecting a lot, just because it had a star-studded cast, but I'd never heard of it. First of all, it takes place in Minneapolis, which is the metro area I'm closest to (I'm about 20 min. outside the twin cities). That was pretty cool, to see so many familiar things. Secondly, the movie is about some really emotional topics and they just give you a raw human story and let it guide you. They don't do a lot of explaining or structuring. The movie just flows and you kindof drift along with it. I watched it twice this weekend and I loved it. There's a romance involved, but it's a drama, by no means a chick flick.
