Diane says: “Mother (Ellen Burstyn) has plunked herself down on a couch in a furniture store and refuses to get up. Her youngest son David (Ewan McGregor) is torn between tending to his mother and trying to get to his daughter’s birthday party. Chain-smoking sibling Linda (Lara Flynn Boyle) just wants to call 911, while older brother Griff (Rhys Ifans) is more interested in chatting up the attractive store owner. Facing failure as a son, father, and brother, David is trapped in family dysfunction, childhood memories, and crazy dreamlike metaphors.
