'Succession's' Brian Cox and 'White Men Can't Jump' star Sinqua Walls lead a strong cast in a melodrama about a war vet trying to heal via fly fishing.
L.A.’s reopened Vidiots, both a theater and video store, hopes to inject a sense of shared commitment and community into the local film scene.A longer-term patient of Dr. Burke’s, the grouchy, 70ish, Vietnam War vet, Ike Fletcher , has his own raft of unresolved struggles that has led to alcoholism, isolation and a deep estrangement from his family.
Then there’s Lucy , a onetime photographer who works in the town library and reads aloud to VA hospital patients. She’s a clearly haunted, detached soul, the reasons for which take a while to be revealed. Lucy eventually meets Colter when he comes to the library looking for books about fishing and a tentative friendship begins. But can Colter keep his demons at bay around her?
In general, Stephen Camelio’s script, sensitive and convincing as it is, attempts to pack too much emotion, back story and metaphor into a relatively slender tale. The result is a two-hour film that would have benefited from a judicious trim, a quickened pace and less melodrama.
