First time writer\/director John Hindman has certainly found the answer for a winning combination in a film with THE ANSWER MAN.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 From the indefatigable emotional roller coaster of Jeff Daniels as Arlen Faber to the comedic perfection of Nora Dunn to the free-spirited joy of Lauren Graham to a script that speaks with love, laughter, heart, (did I say laughter??!!), the whole package makes your heart smile and leaves you wanting more. Beautiful. Touching. Sincere. Simple. No frills. Genuine. Priceless.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Philadelphian Arlen Faber is the answer man.\u00a0 Twenty years ago he wrote a bestseller on God.\u00a0 Faber gave everyone all the answers with \u201cMe and God\u201d, a question and answer session between himself and the man upstairs, the popularity of which flooded the world faster than Moses built the ark.\u00a0 As if \u201cMe and God\u201d wasn\u2019t enough, how about hundreds of follow-up best sellers analyzing your own brilliance, not to mention the brilliance of the guy who started it all, God, but mostly Faber\u2019s own brilliance)\u00a0\u00a0 But, since wowing the world with the wondrous word of God, Faber has become an emotional disconnect, a recluse, a crotchety, angry, maladroit of a guy, incapable of kindness, patience or any form of positive attitude towards himself or others.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-9346\" src=\"http:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/2009-07-22_141638-400x266.jpg\" alt=\"2009-07-22_141638\" width=\"400\" height=\"266\" srcset=\"https:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/2009-07-22_141638-400x266.jpg 400w, https:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/2009-07-22_141638-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/2009-07-22_141638.jpg 602w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><br \/>\nDes<span class=\"s1\">pite his reclusiveness, 20 years later, Faber\u2019s popularity has not waned and, in fact, has escalated, so much so that his publisher\/agent wants him to do a small introduction for a special edition 20<\/span><span class=\"s2\"><sup>th<\/sup><\/span><span class=\"s1\"> anniversary copy of the book.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 But what no one realizes is that while Faber may have given the world all of the answers, Faber himself has none, and spends his time on his own interpersonal and spiritual journey desperately searching for the elusive answers that have passed him by.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Thanks to destiny or the finger of God, Arlen Faber\u2019s life takes a dramatic turn to the living when, thanks to a bad back, he serendipitously collides with (er, crawls to) single mom Elizabeth and her 7 year old, and Kris, a local bookstore merchant just out of rehab, trying to survive and find solace not only within himself but for his father whom he loves but who is a self-destructive alcoholic, and the local mailman who has always suspected but never known for certain that this grouchy man who gets a ton of mail is in truth Arlen Faber.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-9347\" src=\"http:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/2009-07-22_141652-400x267.jpg\" alt=\"2009-07-22_141652\" width=\"400\" height=\"267\" srcset=\"https:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/2009-07-22_141652-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/2009-07-22_141652-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/2009-07-22_141652.jpg 602w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><br \/>\nElizabeth, who has just opened her chiropractic office down the street from Arlen, has no idea who is, although her young giddy-eyed receptionist Anne immediately recognizes \u201cthe man with the answers\u201d and is agog with awesome reverence.\u00a0 But it doesn\u2019t take long for Elizabeth to see there\u2019s more behind the grouch slumped on her office floor.\u00a0 Or is there?\u00a0 Likewise for Kris, who can\u2019t afford to buy used books for his store that Arlen wants to sell him, so he takes it out in trade &#8211;

You are hooked. Daniels shows you his heart in this role. It is simply beautiful. He is emotionally multi-textural and nuanced.\u00a0 Once his character sees Graham\u2019s and the hardened crusty veneer is chipped, Daniels takes hold and peels away ever so carefully, onionskin layers of emotion, adding more depth and dimension and heart to the character. And talk about sarcasm! He nails it every time. Be it emotional or physical sarcasm.\u00a0 And his physical comedy is sheer perf<\/span>ection!\u00a0 To watch him in this performance is a privilege.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-9349\" src=\"http:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/2009-07-22_141720-400x267.jpg\" alt=\"2009-07-22_141720\" width=\"400\" height=\"267\" srcset=\"https:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/2009-07-22_141720-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/2009-07-22_141720-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/2009-07-22_141720.jpg 599w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Lauren Graham is simply an angelic delight.
