Movie Haiku:Two buddies grow apart when one family relocates. Chuck moves away AND moves on, whereas Buck remains emotionally frozen in time & place. Years pass, then Buck wants to pick-up again right where they left off. Chuck & his fiancé are bewildered. Sad, tender film told with raw authenticity.
