Sideways

It is a powerfully written story captured onscreen by Alexander Payne with a wondrous humanity and sensitivity.

This is a film about human beings who can be flawed and prickly but if you go a little deeper, you will see beauty. This is a wonderfully written script, with a great performance by Paul Giamatti.

Funny, touching, and features perhaps the best ensemble work of any film in recent memory. And like fine wine, the movie ages well upon reflection.

A film that not only demands to be sampled but to be gulped down and savored like the vintage draft that it is.
