Second Honeymoon

Russell, a theatrical agent, is hoping to get his wife back after decades of family life as the kids have finally left home. His wife, Edie, is not happy about this. Their son Matt, is wrestling with a relationship in which he earns less than his successful girlfriend and daughter Rosa is wrestling with debt and the end of a turbulent love affair. Living on your own, it seems, may not be as glamorous as it's cracked up to be. Rosa is the first of the Boyd children to think she may have to move back in with her parents-just until she can make ends meet again. Set in Boston, Massachusetts, this is the empty nest, twenty-first-century style-with grown children coming and going just as parents are getting ready for their second honeymoon.

Directed by Oliver Dommenget, Second Honeymoon leans on a strong ensemble — Finja Martens, Ralph Gassmann, Karin Giegerich — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about tv movie titles of 2010.
