Grace is Gone (2007)

This won the Audience Award at Sundance last year and I had been meaning to see it, so I just watched the DVD. First 10 minutes: Stanley (John Cusack) learns that his wife Grace, a soldier, has died in Iraq. He takes his two daughters, aged 12 and 8, on a road trip without telling them what happened. Really good. The score by Clint Eastwood was good too. And I think it wins Jack's & my Producing Plethora Prize: counting the Co-Producers and Associate Producers, this one had 17! I thought Back to Future had a lot in 1985 with 5.
