Genres: Comedy Drama
Rating:
In the wake of his success on the hit NBC sitcom Scrubs, actor Zach_Braff made his debut behind the camera writing, directing, and starring in this bittersweet romantic comedy. Braff plays Andrew Largeman, a young man who has just received word of his mother's passing. With this news, Andrew returns to the town in which he grew up, where he is greeted by his father, Gideon (Ian_Holm), a psychiatrist. In addition to mourning the loss of his mother, Andrew is also attempting to adjust to life without the emotionally numbing antidepressants that he has recently opted to discontinue using. Gradually, with the absence of the pills, his reconnection with his past, and the introduction of Sam (Natalie_Portman), a woman who would seem to have little in common with him, into his life, Andrew is able to see the potential for some positive changes. Also starring Jean_Smart and Peter_Sarsgaard, Garden State was once titled Large's Ark and premiered at the 2004 Sundance Film Festival. Matthew Tobey, Rovi
