A thought provoking and moving look at he way relationships are affected by the loss of an infant, divorce and remarriage.  Natalie Portman plays a woman deeply affected by the loss of her 3 day old infant and how she comes to terms with that loss.  She is also finding it challenging with her new husband's former wife still in the picture (played by Lisa Kudrow) influencing everyday life and hampering her attempts to bond with her new step-son.

There are some heart-warming moments within the film as she makes attempts to move on from the grief and put her life back on track but as with real life - various obstacles are thrown in the way and her own resistance to let go of the grief manifests itself as anger with some and coldness with others. 

Not a light hearted movie by any stretch of the imagination but you almost feel you are a fly on the wall - watching her fall apart and rebuild the way she feels about life, relationships and finally find hope and closure.  A reflective film that could make some teary eyes in the audience depending on your own experiences of the issues raised.
