In this haunting family drama of recrimination and reconciliation, Lisa Waechter is at the center of the story playing a beleaguered family matriarch who has subordinated her needs and desires to those of her family, particularly her cold, demanding husband. Lisa's sudden death brings her entire clan together and triggers a series of flashbacks that reveal how the seeds of today's discontent were planted years earlier. Juxtaposing past and present in a fluid, lyrical, and emotionally resonant manner, "Fireflies in the Garden" shows us that, while family is hard to live with, it is impossible to live without.

I thought this was an up and down kind of movie. Some very good performances particularly with the younger actors. What I did like is how the characters grew ... read more »
Julia Roberts and Hayden Panettiere reunited on Wednesday night (12Oct11) at the Los Angeles premiere of their much-delayed movie Fireflies In The Garden. The drama, which also stars Ryan Reynolds, was first screened at the Berlin Film Festival in 2008 and was subsequently shown in a limited number of European cinemas, but it failed to pick up an American distributor.
