Watch: Life During Wartime 2009 123movies, Full Movie Online – Separated from her incarcerated husband Bill (Hinds), Trish (Janney) is about to be married again. Bill is a pedophile, so Trish couldn’t be more excited to have Harvey (Lerner), a “normal” father figure for her two sons. But when Bill is released from prison and the boys finally meet their future stepdad, the family is forced to decide whether to forgive or to forget. Trish’s sister, the virginal, angelic Joy (Henderson), is also haunted by ghosts of lovers past. On leave from her degenerate husband, Allen (Williams), and her job at a New Jersey correctional facility, Joy unwittingly leaves behind a trail of shame and exposed secrets wherever she goes. In one of the film’s most stylized sequences, the image of Joy walking the dark streets of Miami in her nightgown maintains her innocence against a backdrop of self-affliction and desire..
Plot: Friends, family, and lovers struggle to find love, forgiveness, and meaning in an almost war-torn world riddled with comedy and pathos. Follows Solondz’s film Happiness (1998).

No Comparison
I would really like to see Todd Solondz produce something on the level of WELCOME TO THE DOLLHOUSE or HAPPINESS again but I’m afraid that I’ll just have to settle for watching those earlier works. To be fair, I don’t know what he could have done with the characters from HAPPINESS that would have worked better. I revisited HAPPINESS before seeing LIFE DURING WARTIME to refresh my memory. That film crackles throughout with uneasiness. When we laugh, it’s to release tension. It’s not the cast’s fault that this film lacks the same punch. While unrated in the US, my guess is that this would have received a PG-13 or an R for a few exposed breasts. HAPPINESS would have been NC-17 for sure. HAPPINESS was about getting whatever happiness one can no matter the cost to others. This is a film about forgiving and forgetting and moving on. I can certainly forgive Todd Solondz for what he tried to achieve here even as the film fades from memory.

If you’ve read these reviews
You keep seeing words like “disappointing”, “pretentious”, “not very entertaining”. No, that isn’t the right word, this is a truly awful movie, with many scenes of incredibly poor acting, bad camera angles, a dreadful plot that is purely vulgar for the sake of being vulgar. Remind you of a lot of movies lately?

I’ve seen plenty of bad movies, ones where I felt like I wanted my $1-14 back, or where I wanted the back the time I had wasted watching it. This movie I want my money back, my time back, and to erase it from my memory.

The most uncomfortable thing about this movie is realizing how far the movie industry has fallen, and my country with it that this is the kind of thing that passes for art.
