Synopsis: An aging actor and her writer husband throw an all-night anniversary party with all of their closest friends.
Jennifer Jason Leigh and Alan Cumming penned, directed, and starred in this great little film. They even cast their real-life friends (The Klines, Paltrow, etc). It's complex and deep, but also very funny and real. I highly recommend this, which costars birthday girl, Jennifer Beals.
This is a really good movie... excellent cast. Gets a little melodramatic just at the end, but still solid. I hope Alan Cumming will write another.
