Synopsis:

From IMDb: “Five days in the life of an American couple immediately following the accidental death of their child. An every day story of tragedy, loss, acceptance, hope and renewal. ‘Morning’ follows the divergent paths of Mark (Leland Orser) and Alice Munroe (Jeanne Tripplehorn) as they circle each other in a heart-breaking pas-de-deux of grief before finally coming to grips with their shared loss.”

Poster: C+

Review: It isn’t as if the house motif has never been used, though it’s not as frequently abused as so many others. That stale freshness doesn’t make it an appealing design, it just keeps the poster from being utterly banal.

Trailer: B+

Review: As many have said, there are no new stories, just new ways of telling them. This looks to be an excellent re-staging of the all-too-familiar lost-child trope with terrific actors making for a fresh spin on the oft-told tale.

Oscar Prospects:

None.
