Cameron Diaz and Toni Colette star as sisters whose lives are completely opposite: one is a successful attorney whose life is perfectly organized, while the other is an alcoholic flitting from one casual sexual affair to another. Neither really understands why they are the way they are until an event causes them to separate on unfriendly terms. When they meet again they begin to realize the bonds between sisters can be very strong. Also with Shirley MacLaine, Mark Feuerstein and Brooke Smith. Directed by Curtis Hanson. [2:10]
