Another Happy Day Movie Synopsis & Plot
Ellen Barkin stars in this darkly comic story of the emotional rollercoaster of a family gathering. On the eve of her estranged son's (Michael Nardelli) wedding, Lynn (Barkin), a woman who has always worn her emotions on her sleeve, must deal with her long-simmering feud with her ex-husband (Thomas Hayden Church) and his hot-tempered wife (Demi Moore), the disdain of her cold mother (Ellen Burstyn) and distant father (George Kennedy) and the ridicule of her ever-judgmental sisters. And the fact that she brings along her three deeply troubled children (Ezra Miller, Daniel Yelsky, Kate Bosworth) don't make things any easier for Lynn.
MOVIE REVIEW
There are movies that inspire hope, joy and enthusiasm for life. And then there are movies that seem to dig into your flesh and rip your soul from your body, sucking all happiness away. If Another Happy Day, the new movie from writer/director Sam Levinson, were a Harry Potter character, it'd be a dementor, its sole purpose to depress anyone who crosses its path.Read our Another Happy Day movie review »
