Thirteen Conversations about One Thing

         

The MM - "Matthew McConaughey and Alan Arkin head a strong ensemble cast that discuss luck, fate, and other uncontrollable forces that shape their lives. The charismatic cast of characters move in and out of each other's lives as they move around New York City. As they deal with life's ups and downs, they talk, talk, talk, talk, talk, and then talk some more. Philosophical and thought provoking, this film will be the topic of many a conversation after the closing credits."

Ed's Note - We agree with the MM's assessment and Alan Arkin is in rare form here. Movie contains one of the better lines we've heard lately. "Faith is the antithesis of proof."
