Preview: Touching Home (2010)

Synopsis:

A loving father battles addiction and poverty as his sons take care of him.

• Poster: D+

Review:

If you want to see a grisled Ed Harris, then this is your poster. But, if you're like me, this isn't exactly a selling point to the film. The rest of the poster is rather commonplace and unimaginative.

• Trailer: C-

Review:

Two inexperienced directors, twin brothers, not only appear in the film but the story is about their father and they love they have for him. And while I applaud their tenacity to get the film made, the trailer does not paint the film as a spectacular one and without any major trade publications voicing their support in the various critics notices the producers put into the trailer, hope should not be kept.

Oscar Prospects:

None.

Release Date:
