Miami International Film Festival 2010

As they say, "truth is stranger than family," and Raymond De Felitta's newest comedy presents a family desperately trying to conform to neighborhood norms by hiding their true characters from each other and the world. Meet the Rizzos, a dysfunctional brood of consummate liars, who might get along better if they could just tell each other the truth. Dad Vince (Andy Garcia) is having a midlife crisis, mom Joyce (Julianna Margulies) feels neglected, and teens Vivian (Dominik García-Lorido) and Vinnie Jr. (Ezra Miller) are each hiding their own skeletons in the closet. In the end, all secrets are revealed with both comic and very satisfying results. This Audience Award winner at the 2009 Tribeca Film Festival with a stellar ensemble cast is a funny and touching tale about past secrets compromising present lies, which confirms that nobody's perfect – least of all your loved ones.
