Synopsis: David Marks (Gosling) is torn between his love for Katie (Dunst) and following the footsteps if his father (Lengella) in real-estate although he hates it.
Review: Based on real events, I didn't know where the story was going. It all starts nicely with the life of the young Davis Marks but then we see him evolve through life as years go by. The three main actors of the movie are great. Frank Langella is scary as authoritarian father and Kirsten Durst lovely as usual (if you like her). It is nice to see Ryan Gosling playing something different than the very handsome young man as he did in Crazy, Stupid, Love. He tries (not always succesfully) to add more layers to his character to make him less predicatable. In the end the movie is about how people can change if you look at them for long enough periods of time, in that case 20 years. As often in movies based on real events, there are some gaps in the story, some strange reactions by the characters and  the ending can miss to satisfy you. This is the difference between real life and a movie story.
