The Savages

US (2007): Comedy/Drama

The Savages is an irreverent look at family, love and mortality as seen through the lens of modern life's most bewildering and challenging experiences: when adult siblings (Laura Linney and Philip Seymour Hoffman) find themselves plucked from their everyday, self-centered lives to care for an estranged elderly parent (Philip Bosco).

Written for the screen and directed by Tamara Jenkins; produced Anne Carey, Ted Hope and Erica Westheimer. (Fox Searchlight - Web site)
