Beginners

Commitment-phobic graphic artist Oliver (Ewan McGregor) finds himself unprepared for the sadness he feels over the death of his father (Best Supporting Actor Oscar-winner Christopher Plummer), in part because his dad's coming out as a gay man appeared to bring him a sense of peace─even joy─as he faced his terminal illness. Oliver tries to take to heart that freedom to "start over" by pursuing a new romance. This charming, moving film about life, death, love, and talking to your dog co-stars Mélanie Laurent, Goran Visnjic. 104 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtracks: English Dolby Digital 5.1, Spanish Dolby Digital 5.1; Subtitles: English (SDH), French, Spanish; audio commentary; featurette; more.
