Sometimes you find love where you'd least expect it. Just ask Lars Gosling a sweet but quirky guy who thinks he's found the girl of his dreams in a life-sized doll named Bianca. Lars is completely content with his artificial girlfriend but when he develops feelings for Margo an attractive co-worker Lars finds himself lost in a hilariously unique love triangle hoping to somehow discover the real meaning of true love.

To some, Lars and the Real Girl will play as comedy; to others, tragedy. Though Craig Gillespie Mr. Woodcock allows Lars Lindstrom a mustachioed Ryan Gosling, miles away from Half Nelson a happy ending, the road is far from smooth. This rumpled Midwesterner couldn't be more miserable. His brother, Gus Paul Schneider, All the Real Girls, and sister-in-law, Karin Emily Mortimer, Lovely and Amazing, fall over themselves to cheer him up, but Lars cannot be moved; he's been like that since childhood. Then a porn-addicted co-worker hips him to the lifelike Real Doll. The next thing everyone knows, Lars has a new girlfriend named Bianca. She's from Brazil, she's shy, and she uses a wheelchair. She's also made of silicon. Because Lars is a devout Christian, hanky-panky is out of the question. Since he's finally emerging from his shell, his doctor, Dagmar Patricia Clarkson, advises Gus and Karin to play along with the "delusion." Soon the whole town, including Margo Kelli Garner, who harbors a not-so-secret crush on her officemate, gets in on the action, forcing Lars to rejoin the human race or crawl deeper into psychosis. Written by Six Feet Under's Nancy Oliver, Lars and the Real Girl is built around such a preposterous premise, it's hard to know whether to laugh or cry. Fortunately, the actors play it straight. Gosling does his best to make Lars sympathetic, but Schneider and Mortimer, fully convincing in their concern, are the true heart and soul of this odd little film. --Kathleen C. Fennessy
