Synopsis

"A Great Film! The cast is just uniformly excellent here." --Richard Roeper, "At the Movies With Ebert & Roeper"

"A brave and magnificently performed period piece." --Jan Stuart, "Newsday"

SOME WILL FALL. SOME WILL FLY.

A drama that interweaves the life of a teenager with his old baby sitter, her estranged husband, and their daughter.

Arthur busses tables in a Chinese restaurant, plays trombone in the high school marching band, and has his eye on smart, funny, offbeat Lila, who definitely has her eye on him. But as Arthur takes tentative steps towards his first romantic relationship, the long-time relationships of the adults around him teeter and crash, drawing Arthur into a vortex of events that will change his world forever.

From director/screenwriter David Gordon Green ("Undertow"), based on Stewart O'Nan's powerful novel and empowered by the bone-real performances of Kate Beckinsale, Sam Rockwell, and as Arthur, young Michael Angarano ("The Forbidden Kingdom"), SNOW ANGELS captures the power of first love. And second chances.
