It’s like Marley & Me, but more nakedly pandering, or a Nancy Meyers movie, but with a dog instead of food and cashmere sweaters. It’s all those things and more! Or maybe less? It’s Darling Companion, which stars Diane Keaton, Kevin Kline, Elisabeth Moss, Mark Duplass, Richard Jenkins, and Dianne Wiest as rich people looking for a lost dog, who maybe find themselves along the way. Oh, Lawrence Kasdan, what did you do?
“Freeway†is a cute enough name for a dog found on a freeway, but it sure does sound like “threeway†the first few times it’s uttered in this trailer.
