Four suburban families and their issues overlap in Troche’s The Safety of Objects. There are stars all over the place from Glenn Close to Timothy Olyphant to Kristen Stewart in her film debut. The acting and direction are both very well done. The story is just a bit too odd and depressing form my taste. I could really see how some people would love this though. One character has a nervous breakdown and dedicates himself to helping people he’s never even met to win a truck in a radio contest. Just a little off. I won’t recommend it, but I will say there’s an audience out there for it (see Requiem for a Dream) so check it out at your own risk.
