this is such a strangely profound movie with so much heart that ive formed some odd bond with over the years the vibe of the coastal rhode island town the relatable weirdness of extended family the ever-comforting steve carrell 'sad guy' archetype a coming of age b-plot from the perspective of a parent that plays into the overall theme of the film the feel of the family cabin the very mid 2000's musical choices cant recommend this stupid little romcom enough
