Aniston's Best Work To Date...

I was reading the history of this film at Wikipedia, and found that the filmmaker had Jen, and Jen alone in mind for this role of a woman who becomes fascinated by the suicide of someone (Anna Kendrick) in her chronic pain support group while grappling with her own, very raw personal tragedy. I've seen Aniston is some decent roles over the years ("The Good Girl", "Management", "Friends With Money", etc..), but this is certainly her best to date.
She lets her age show in this for perhaps the first time on screen since hitting the big 4-0, and the lines on her face expose some deeper trauma her character is going through *possible SPOILER* that doesn't come to the surface for most of the film's duration. So when it finally does- all that much greater impact is felt. Kudos to Jen for some amazing acting work here... Adriana Barraza, Felicity Huffman, William H. Macy, and Sam Worthington round out the cast.
