Edited by Susan Shipton ; director of photography, Guy Dufaux ; music by Pasquale Catalano.Paul Giamatti, Macha Grenon, Paul Gross, Atom Egoyan, Mark Camacho, David Pryde, Mark Addy, Rachelle Lefevre, Thomas Trabacchi, Dustin Hoffman.This seriocomic adaptation of Mordecai Richler's award-winning 1997 novel stars Paul Giamatti as Barney Panofsky, who meets the great love of his life, Miriam (Rosamund Pike), at the most inopportune time imaginable: his marriage to his second wife (Minnie Driver), a wealthy Jewish princess and compulsive shopper. Narrated by Barney as a confessional, the film covers 30 years of his unusual journey -- from his first marriage to the chronically unfaithful free spirit Clara (Rachelle Lefevre) and their life in Italy together, through his third marriage to Miriam, with whom he has two children. Standing in the wings is Barney's father, Izzy (Dustin Hoffman), who continues to stick by him as his loyal right-hand man. Through it all, Barney experiences numerous highs and lows, but manages to consistently surprise everyone with unforeseen acts of altruism and kindness that turn him into the quintessential modern hero.Canadian Home Video Rating: 14A.DVD ; widescreen presentation ; Dolby digital.- Subjects: Richler, Mordecai, 1931-2001.; Fathers and sons; Feature films.; Love; Man-woman relationships; Married people;
