A film that’s small in scale, sizeable in achievement.
Michael celebrates Sam Mendes' Away We Go on DVD…
Truth be told,Away We Gowas badly marketed.
Heck, it still is.
In fact, it is a work of tender, genuine charms.
Thirtysomething Americans Verona (Maya Rudolph) and Burt (John Krasinski) are expecting their first child.
It is all an excuse to spend time with the characters, who are warm and likeable.
This subtle complexity givesAway We Goa gentle resonance.
It results in a film that is small in scale, but powerful in its emotional involvement.
Otherwise, there are two mildly diverting, if not incredibly informative mini-featurettes.
