In Everybody’s Fine, a remake of Guiseppe Tornatore’s Stanno Tutti Bene Robert De Niro plays a widower who takes a road trip to visit his adult children for the holidays, played by Drew Barrymore, Kate Beckinsale, and Sam Rockwell. The trailer is surprising in that there are literally no surprises: we’ve all seen this movie before, usually because it’s preferable to actually talking to our relatives at the holidays (oh, the irony!) It’s kind of odd, though, that Miramax used the “zany comedy” trailer voice-over guy for this one, lending it an air of wackiness that doesn’t seem like the movie will bear out. With a current release date of December 4, let’s just hope it’s still in theaters on Christmas Day, when the two-hour distraction will be most needed.
