The Family Man

Henry Archer, a distinguished yet solitary lawyer, finds his meticulously organized life thrown into disarray by a frantic phone call from his ex-wife and the sight of a familiar face in a photograph. Henry, a traditional man and homosexual, is unexpectedly reconnected with Thalia, his 29-year-old stepdaughter from a failed marriage. Thalia, an aspiring actress, is estranged from her eccentric, newly widowed mother, Denise. In an effort to advance her career, Thalia agrees to pretend to be the girlfriend of a romantically unsuccessful former sitcom star who now acts in horror films. When Thalia, along with her intricate social life, moves into the basement of Henry’s upscale townhouse on New York's Upper West Side, she discovers a supporter in her long-lost father figure. Meanwhile, Henry finds new purpose—and possibly even love—amidst the chaos. This touching narrative, blending comedy and drama, delves into themes of family, relationships, and intergenerational connections, emphasizing the transformative power of reunions, unexpected friendships, and the revival of hope in the lives of mature characters.
