What can I say about the film, "Sideways"? You have to be middle-aged to appreciate it, would be my first thought.
Next, you have to be a middle-aged loser to appreciate it...but then, that is getting kind of personal, isn't it?
Sure, it's a "buddy" movie and it's about men and their foibles, but on a deeper level it is about all of us and what we fear -- that somehow our lives won't matter much and we'll be left alone.
There is much more than can -- and will be -- said about this film, with its metaphors about wine...but it is a film that is worth seeing and best of all, thinking about.
