the kids are all right (2010). directed by lisa cholodenko.


i quite like cholodenko's work, in particular high art (1998) and laurel canyon (2002). this movie has laurel's potential, the whole superficially-everything-is-ok-but-not-really BUT it is not actually as good as laurel. i find the story..hmm..how should one put it. i find the story flat. yeah you have a lesbian couple who has half sibling children looking for the donor dad. the one of the partners slept with the donor dad out of the usual relationship boredom. it could have been interesting, domestic unrest, like in we don't live here anymore (2004), but this movie brings nothing new to the table.
