Yeah.ĬONAN: And there must be a great temptation when you're sort of rewriting roman a clef this chapter in your life to give yourself a lot of really good lines. I think-you know, it's definitely inspired by people and places and things that I know really well, but you know, it's a work of fiction too.ĬONAN: I assume you were the older kid in the movie? I think I just, you know, came at it just how I see the world, you know?ĬONAN: It's been said that this is at least in part, well, a story of your life.

It's an elegant block, the filet of the neighborhood. DANIELS: It's only five stops on the subway. Unidentified Boy #1: Across the park? Not even Brooklyn? I've got an elegant new house across the park. JEFF DANIELS: We're going to have joint custody. For many watching, the film's struggle with divorce could cut close to the bone. They live in Brooklyn, New York, with their two sons played by Jesse Eisenberg and Owen Kline. The parents, played by Jeff Daniels and Laura Linney, are literary types whose careers are going in opposite directions. It tells the story of a family which at least on the surface may seem a bit unfamiliar.
