The Sisters
Bello plays Marcia, one of three sisters around whom the story is based. The film opens with Marcia and Olga (Mary Stuart Masterson) preparing a birthday surprise for their younger sister, Irene (Erika Christensen). There are deep seated, clearly longstanding rifts opening up between Marcia and her siblings and their other family members, especially when a man from their childhood in Charleston makes a surprise appearance and jolts a few unhappy memories out of the women. Revelations about the sisters' turbulent relationship with their father trickle sadly from Marcia's lips, Irene has to quell a storm brewing between two men (played by Chris O'Donnell and Eric McCormack) with romantic intentions toward her, and to make matters worse, their troublesome brother (Alessandro Nivola) and his girlfriend (Elizabeth Banks) frequently bring more grief whenever they're around.

Film of a play
If - like me - you just hate it when a film based on a play looks and feels like a film of a play rather than a movie, don't rent this. Painful.

Understated brilliance
I really enjoyed this. Well written, witty and moving, a great observation on the complexity of relationships. An intelligent film.
