Director: Vadim Perelman
Stars: Uma Thurman, Evan Rachel Wood, Eva Amurri
The Plot: A two-tiered dramatic thriller centered on Diana (Thurman), a wife and mother whose idyllic life begins to fray as she recalls a tragic, 15-year-old event which claimed the life of her best friend Maureen (Amurri); running parallel to this story is another tale, that of the younger Diana (Wood), who is dealing with her strained relationship with Maureen, the tragedy itself, and the mystery behind the crime.
The Buzz from IMDB: Formerly known as In Bloom, Vadim Perelman's follow up to House of Sand and Fog has bewildered and angered enough critics to possibly make all the drama worth your while, even if those who are familiar with the book say the mysteries and dramas of young Diana's life aren't tiered with any narrative skill or grace. So let's just state, without heading into spoiler territory, if you have seen 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days, then you caught the "good" film about abortion and its effects on a female character.
Thanks for everything, IMDB. :)
