Writer-director Reverge Anselmo handles sensitive issues not with kid gloves, but with a metaphorical baseball mitt, fumbling with tone and obviously laboring to force quirks upon characters and situations..

O Brother, Where Art Thou? (2000) Online Streaming

Any guy who sits through this date movie deserves to get to third base at least.. The Coens' usual arch deliberateness isn't quite as deliberate, and there's an appealing shagginess to some of the episodes and performances..
