Peter O'Fallon's
heartwarming drama tells the
uplifting story of an unlikely
friendship between an
emotionally
scarred young boy and a mournful
older woman. Twelve-year-old
James Neubauer (Trevor Morgan)
has never fully healed from the
traumatic loss of his mother in
a car accident. His father (Ray
Liotta) has chosen to pretend it
never happened, throwing himself
headlong into work and a new
life with James' stepmother
(Catherine McCormack). For these
reasons, James harbors a deep
resentment for his father. The
only friend he has is his quirky
Uncle Charlie (Ron Livingston),
but even Charlie is unable to
provide the consolation James
needs. Salvation miraculously
arrives in the form of Maddy
Bennett (Vanessa Redgrave), a
local recluse who is still
healing from a great loss of her
own. When James accidentally
breaks Maddy's fence, she
demands that he fix it himself.
What is initially a defensive,
stubborn battle of egos slowly
changes into an extremely close
relationship that crosses all
boundaries and helps both James
and Maddy to confront and
conquer their demons. Filmed
with sensitivity, A RUMOR OF
ANGELS boasts beautiful scenery,
inspiring music by Mozart, and
yet another unforgettable
performance by the legendary
Redgrave. |
