About A Beginner's Guide to Endings
The film centers on three brothers who, upon learning they only have a few days left to live, set off to reverse a lifetime of mistakes. Hopper and Simmons are playing the brothers' father and uncle, respectively, while Caan is one of the brothers. Helfer is Caan's girlfriend, a woman with a dangerous past.
Directed by Jonathan Sobol, A Beginner's Guide to Endings leans on a strong ensemble — Paulo Costanzo, Scott Caan, J.K. Simmons — 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 comedy titles of 2010.
