Snow Angels

Directed by David Gordon Green, Appearing in Person.
With Kate Beckinsale, Sam Rockwell,Michael Angarano.
US, 2008, 35mm, color, 106 min.

Based on Stewart O'Nan's novel, Snow Angels chronicles three couples, their relationships in various stages of decline, as their lives overlap and intersect in a small town. A separated couple is torn further apart by tragedy, while a young man experiences first love as he navigates the fallout from his parents' divorce. Green sympathetically presents a group of often unsympathetic, flawed characters as they struggle toward emotional maturity, imbuing their actions with a touching humanity that counters the film's dark subject matter.
