Not really, unfortunately. Frances is good of course, but I already don't really remember anything about it and I only watched it a few months ago.

The Christian Bale movie? I saw it years ago and barely remember it but I think it was pretty good

McDormand's character is the only one worth watching in it. She is Bale's mother who have a rocky relationship due to her adventurousness while Bale is a run of the mill basic husband. Bale visits with her with his wife.
SPOILERS: McDormand and her friend (Alessandro Nivola) kind of seduce her and Bale is outraged. However, he himself gets adventurous at workplace and finally reconciles. That's it. SPOILER END.

It's just okay. McDormand is good. Bale and Beckinsale were cute though.

The film is a bit scattered, but worth seeing if you are in need of light entertainment.

I'm probably in the minority but I absolutely love this movie and the soundtrack is just fantastic.

Hmmm... I guess I would say I like the film (I have rewatched it a bunch of times), but it's definitely flawed... Kind of rudderless, and I don't think it quite captures that summery, rock n roll, ladies-of-the-canyon vibe very convincingly... and that's such a big part of the movie. :/
It's a very easy watch though. Frances McDormand and Alessandro Nivola are charming and as much as the aesthetic and writing style rings false, it's still a nice watch.
