Winter Passing

Winter Passing (2006)

Upon learning that a publisher will pay dearly for the love letters her novelist father (Ed Harris) wrote to her late mother, Reese Holden (Zooey Deschanel) returns to Michigan after seven years away from home. But instead of the reclusive man she expected to find, she discovers her dad has formed a deep connection with the struggling musician (Will Ferrell) and ex-grad student (Amelia Warner) who now live under his roof. Amy Madigan co-stars.

My Two Cents: I couldnt tell if it tried too hard or didnt try hard enough. Despite a likeable cast there's nothing particularly likeable about this dull, flat film.
