The Daytrippers (1996)
Country: US
Technical: col 87m
Director: Greg Mottola
Cast: Hope Davis, Anne Meara, Campbell Scott, Stanley Tucci, Liev Schreiber, Parker Posey, Maggie Gyllenhaal
Synopsis:
A wife comes across evidence of her husband's infidelity and the whole family takes off into New York to confront the unsuspecting transgressor.
Review:
This well-observed piece of unified docu-drama (handheld shots, grainy unlit photography) begins by offering the family as the repository of caring solidarity but ends with all comforting bourgeois ideals turned on their heads. Touchingly very funny, and with a dream cast who would go on to great things.
