MY ONE AND ONLY (2009)

Based on an early life experience of actor George Hamilton, this road trip movie is also a slice of life from fifties America.

Fed-up with her philandering bandleader of a husband, Anne Deveraux (Renee Zellweger) decides to leave him for good. So she takes all his money, buys a baby blue Cadillac convertible, loads up their two teenage sons and start searching for a new meal ticket for her and the boys.

Unlike most films of this genre, the pace of this one is rather low. And although it has its funny moments, overall it is a bit drab. The only standout is Logan Lerman. As usual, his mere presence makes this movie watchable. Therefor I give it 3 out of 5 stars.
