Sweet, subtle, open film in which unhappy husband on business in New Orleans befriends a wild teenage sex worker, because she reminds him of his dead daughter. Meanwhile his wife is so overwhelmed with grief she cannot leave their house. Well acted by the three, James Gandolfini, Kristen Stewart, Melissa Leo, written by Ken Hixon in such a way that it doesn't resolve itself neatly.
Dark (rather too dark - this is no Eduardo Serra) photography by Christopher Soos, simple music by Marc Streitenfeld. Steven Zailllian and the Scotts are exec producers (ah! - Jake is Ridley's son).
