Rating:
A woman who has drifted away from her boyfriend's affections finds love in the arms of his son in this independent drama. Laura (Dina_Korzun) is an attractive woman in her early thirties who was living in her native Russia when she met Alan James (Rip_Torn), a legendary music producer from Memphis. Alan brought Laura back to the United States and moved in with her, but now that the couple have a three-year-old son, Laura finds herself a stranger in the city she now calls home and is growing increasingly distant from the philandering Alan. After a testimonial tribute to Alan, Laura meets his grown son Michael (Darren_E._Burrows) for the first time; Michael has a difficult and sometimes combative relationship with Alan and prefers to keep a distance from him and his life, but Michael and Laura find they quickly develop a strong rapport. Laura and Michael's friendship soon grows into an affair, but as Laura considers her unhappiness with Alan, she also feels guilty about betraying a man who has given her a life she would hardly have dared to dream of when she was younger. Forty Shades of Blue was helmed by Ira_Sachs (who earned enthusiastic reviews for his 1997 debut feature The_Delta), from a script he co-wrote with Michael Rohatyn. Mark Deming, Rovi
