Life Itself
Dan Fogelman, the creator of the series This Is Us, writes and directs this saga about love and family that takes place in New York City and Carmona, Spain. The trailer has a lot of acoustic guitar, philosophizing about heroes and villains, declarations of love, and babies jumping up and down. With Oscar Isaac, Olivia Wilde, Mandy Patinkin, and other big deals. Reviewing this film, A.O. Scott of the NYT writes: "Isn't it amazing how human destinies intertwine? This movie seems intent on persuading you that the answer is 'no.'" Peter Travers of Rolling Stone: "The real tragedy strikes when you buy a ticket." You've been warned.
