EVERYTHING MUST GO

Movie: Everything Must Go
Jan's Rating: 8
Time: 1 Hour 36 Minutes

Jan's Opinion: My friend Laura and I went to see this movie today, and fyi, it is only playing at the Esquire in Clifton. It is the first movie in which I have seen Will Farrell play a serious role and he did a great job. It definitely was not a comedy. He gets fired one day and comes home to find his wife has left him and put all his stuff on the front lawn and changed the lock on the house so he can't get inside. The movie takes place over the next 4 or 5 days as he lives on his front yard and finally realizes that his being an alcoholic has cost him to lose eveything. In those 4 or 5 days, he meets some interesting strangers who actually help him more than his family and friends do to turn his life around. Laura and I both enjoyed it, even though it didn't make us laugh.
