Quirky, heartfelt, and sad...

Saw The Descendants last evening at the Uptown Theater...


This drama is not quite so funny as the trailers suggest, dealing as it does with loss, betrayal, regret, terminal illness, death, parenting, aging, responsibility, our desire for second chances and our response when we are denied them.  George Clooney does a nice turn, but I was most impressed by the work displayed by young actors Shailene Woodley and Nick Krouse.
