Christopher Walken, Katherine Keener, Philip Seymour Hoffman, and Mark Ivanir star as a renowned string quartet about to embark on their twenty-fifth season, when the group's cellist (Walken) is diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease.
The egos of creative types is a subject matter that can grow rather tiresome. All the infighting and history of the group comes off as nothing more than a classical music version of Fleetwood Mac. Oddly low-key and overdramatic at the same time, this has good performances from the four (however, none of them even bother to look like they're actually playing their instruments) and a scene here and there that works.
