My One and Only (2009)

Comedy drama based on the early life of George Hamilton in the 1950s.

Renée Zellweger stars. She leaves her husband (Kevin Bacon) after he cheats on her, and takes off on a road trip with her sons. In search of a new husband and financial stability, she encounters a range of unsuitable men.

The quirky tone takes a little getting used to, but once you acclimatise, the film is highly enjoyable.

Zellweger is excellent as always – highly watchable and sympathetic.

There are hints of Woody Allen (especially his Blue Jasmine) crossed with the parent/child drama of Anywhere but Here.
