    A knock-out performance from Canadian actress Sarah Polley (Go, The Sweet Hereafter) is the main reason for seeing this insightful, if sentimental, coming-of-age saga. Polley plays affection-starved 21-year-old Harper Sloane, who meets middle-aged photographer Connie Fitzpatrick (Stephen Rea) at her sister's wedding. Attracted by his bohemian charisma, she becomes his apprentice and lover. But does he really think she's something special? Or is she just another conquest? The directorial debut of screenwriter Audrey Wells (The Truth about Cats and Dogs) is a familiar May-December romance containing as many deft broad strokes as it does missteps. However, the presence of Polley makes such mistakes easier to bear.
