Review of Two Weeks

The R Rating is totally uncalled for. It's a really long, tough look at what it's like to sit through a dying parent's last days and the roles people take on in this situation. Some may call it cliché but that's life and death. I've seen every one of the personalities depicted - even the Rabi! The quick move from limited theater release to DVD is strange. Usually the star appears on a few talk shows and plugs the movie. Sally seemed tied up with "Brothers and Sisters" when the movie went into limited showing. I think the movie distributors were afraid of it. What a shame that a movie like this isn't getting full play in theaters. Does this mean Sally won't have any chance at Oscar nomination for her work? I think it's a symptom of our inability to deal with death in America. Trivia - Sally Fields' son attended Syracuse University.
