One of the many steps we take as we grow into an adult is consider how we fit into the culture in which we find ourselves. This is particularly the case when we move to another city, take on a new occupation and gather around us new friends and loved ones. When we’re faced with showing someone new where we come from, sometimes we slip back into our old life leaving our new acquaintance gobsmacked. It is as if they have been replaced by a not-to-bright alien.

George (Alessandro Nivola) has the demeanour of a cosmopolitan sophisticate and his new wife Madeleine (Embeth Davidtz), a chic art gallery owner from Chicago, is smitten. On a trip to corral a new artist who lives near George’s family, they stop by for a visit. Madeleine doesn’t know quite what to make of the George she sees and how he reacts to old family friends. From the gospel singing with his old church choir buddies to how he is greeted at a church supper, she is stunned by this man she hardly knows.

Most people see the fat kids as a source of amusement and ridicule. Their feelings are treated by others like those of a cartoon character. Jamie Palamino (Amy Smart), the ex-cheerleader, thinks of Chris Brander (Ryan Reynolds) as a friend while he’s pining away in unrequited love for her. She can’t see past her memories of him and he’s now ready to take a shot if only the proper moment comes along.

It’s hard to grieve the loss of someone you love. About all you have is your memories and perhaps somewhere which marks their life. Jesse Stone (Tom Selleck) lost his girl Abby Taylor (Polly Shannon) in an earlier movie, Stone Cold (2005). He visits her grave, kneels, chokes up, squeezes out a tear at the memory of her death.

Truth is a slippery topic. Often it depends upon your point of view. There is an old maxim that says something like “history is written by the victors.” Joan Wilder (Kathleen Turner) learns all about it after being lured to write a puff piece about a middle eastern ruler by the name of Omar (Spiros Focas). She discovers that he is a brutal theocrat and that, until she agrees to finish the article to introduce him to the world as a benevolent, enlightened ruler working to unite the Arab world, she’ll languish in prison. Enter her somewhat world weary swain Jack Colton (Michael Douglas).

Jerry Maguire (Tom Cruise) is a sports agent working for a big agency who has a crisis of faith. As a result, he authors a mission statement for the sports management business and how he believes that it should operate. After circulating it to all staff, he’s applauded by his fellow employees who are touched by the honesty of the document but the owners want him fired. Jerry is clearing out his desk and calls upon others to join him but the only one to take up the banner is Dorothy Bird (Renée Zellweger). It’s easy to figure out how many can talk the talk but hesitate to walk the walk.
