In Joe Hall's melodrama, a small town boy will literally spend 20 years pursuing misguided big city dreams instead of going to therapy
, has one positive. It allows us to see more of the terrific Brittain with his confident Brad Pitt stride and flat, yet expressive, voice. The pedestrian Winchell plays Cole over a 20-year span, although he’s more credible as the younger, aw-shucks Cole than the older, Managing Partner Cole. Either way, Winchell’s boyish face and overwrought delivery makes it hard to connect with him over the course of the film’s slow moving and bloated running time.
This is a film that asks, why use one establishing shot when you can use three? One lengthy and unnecessary scene involving a character in close-up, contemplating suicide, is just Hall playing to the back row in pure Movie of the Week fashion. The lines of conflict in his script are too often thick and schematic, as when Sarah agrees, to Cole’s dismay, to represent the unethical AgriCon, because money is money.
