Plot
A newspaper editor (Broderick) suffering from memory loss after an accident takes a trip to a memorabilia expo with his Alzheimer's-impaired relative, Rollie (Alda), and his high school flame, Charlotte (Madsen). The plan is for Rollie to sell a rare baseball card, but a few people want the card.
Cast
Critical reception
The movie opened to generally mediocre reviews, with just 33% of critics followed by Rotten Tomatoes giving it a favorable review. USA Today said that it "has moments of sweetness, but not enough poignancy or wit to turn it into the endearing art-house comedy that it aspires to be." Time Out New York said, "Great, just what we needed: another rote exercise in indie-feely humanism."
