#Youtube an unfinished life movie#
Jean, although the catalyst, is made redundant once they hit the ranch because the movie is really about the relationship between granddaughter and grandfather - something Hallstrom has forgotten. We have seen Jean played so many times before and Lopez brings absolutely nothing new or original to the role. Every time Lopez appears on screen, she sinks the whole ship it's not just her acting abilities (which are not up to scratch), it's her character. Fans who also called the Heartbreak Hotline at 323. When you take a glance at Lopez's previous outings (Monster In Law, Jersey Girl, Maid In Manhattan, The Wedding Planner, Enough, Gigli) it's obvious she needed a hit, and fast, and signing on to a project which stars two heavyweight actors in Redford and Freeman looked like a smart move - think again. My new song ‘vampire’ is out June 30th she wrote, while sharing the single art. His leading lady didn't help much either.
As Jean takes a job in a local cafe, Einar and Griff set about building a relationship with the help of crippled farmhand Mitch (Freeman).However, the threat of Jean's boyfriend turning up hangs heavily in the air.Īn Unfinished Life falls down between two stools as it tries to cater to the type of film my father likes (the great outdoors, Robert Redford) with the type of movie my mother likes (a woman wronged, Robert Redford).Director Hallstrom aims for, and succeeds in delivering, a bittersweet tale but in keeping the bitter as far from the sweet as possible, he ends up with two movies hopelessly strung together. Things are frosty between Jean and Einar because he blames her for the death of his son who died in a car accident years before.
After suffering for too long at the hands (and fists) of her violent boyfriend, Jean Gilkyson (Lopez) flees with her 11-year-old daughter Griff (Becca Gardner) to her estranged father-in-law Einar's (Redford) dilapidated ranch.
