Director Lawrence Kasdan's Darling Companion probably has the best synopsis I've ever read:
The story of a woman who loves her dog more than her husband. And then her husband loses the dog.
For some reason, I love the bluntness of it. It's to the point. It's also kind of divisive. Is this synopsis really worth a 90-minute movie? After viewing the trailer, you may argue the same question.
Based on the stellar cast, I say, yes, this story is worth telling. But a lot of people probably said the same thing about Town & Country, another Diane Keaton film with an amazing cast that totally bombed at the box office.
