Adopting Audrey

This is a film that doesn't attempt to be great, but instead becomes great through the unique characters introduced in the film. Otto is introduced as a recursive and almost hostile character, mellowed out in time by a stellar, struggling Audrey. This film is simple: Audrey is a late 30's struggling woman looking for something to fill the void so apparent in her life. Her search eventually leads her to a diverse family with a very strong willed and well-acted Otto, who himself discovers he had been missing something in his life as essential as what Audrey was after. Jena Malone was very good here, showing an award-status and glorious performance that isn't loud or obnoxious, but rather quiet, somber, humble. This film may not be for everyone, but for me this film demonstrates a uniqueness that can't be missed, accompanied by solid acting talent. 9/10.
