Nicole's quite tough on her women friends - played by Catherine Keener and Anne Heche - exposing them as petty and silly. Heche for example never wears her engagement ring. The film plays out rather like a Woody Allen, which you can't help thinking really, as this is the only film Alisa Lepselter was credited with as editor before her partnership with the New Yorker began - so far she's edited 22 of his films. Anyway, back to Walking. The men are Todd Field and Kevin Corrigan, with Liev Schreiber and Randall Batinkoff, and The Sopranos' Vincent Pastore as 'Devil-seeing patient'. The film unusually also features a cancer-ridden cat. Rather enjoyable. Allison Janney appears fleetingly, with Alice Drummond (Pieces of April) and Lynn Cohen pops up again, unexpectedly (we just saw her in Master of None).
