With Sideways, Paul Giamatti American Splendor, Storytelling has become an unlikely but engaging romantic lead. Struggling novelist and wine connoisseur Miles Giamatti takes his best friend Jack Thomas Haden Church, Wings on a wine-tasting tour of California vineyards for a kind of extended bachelor party. Almost immediately, Jack's insatiable need to sow some wild oats before his marriage leads them into double-dates with a rambunctious wine pourer Sandra Oh, Under the Tuscan Sun and a recently divorced waitress Virginia Madsen, The Hot Spot--and Miles discovers a little hope that he hasn't let himself feel in a long time. Sideways is a modest but finely tuned film; with gentle compassion, it explores the failures, struggles, and lowered expectations of mid-life. Giamatti makes regret and self-loathing sympathetic, almost sweet. From the director of Election and About Schmidt. --Bret Fetzer
