Synopsis
Lymelife is a coming-of-age film about the challenges faced by two suburban Long Island families in the late 70s. The Bartletts played by Alec Baldwin, Jill Hennessy and Kieran Culkin, and the Braggs, played by Cynthia Nixon and Timothy Hutton. The two families experience a variety of troubles including divorce, real estate problems and Lyme disease. Complicating matters is the budding romantic relationship between Scott Bartlett, played by Rory Culkin and Adrianna Bragg, played by Emma Roberts.Official Site: LymelifeReview Quotes
- "The setting is Long Island in 1979. Lyme disease is a threat to suburban families who don't need a deer tick to break down emotionally. Even when the drama gets overcooked, Lymelife sends off sparks."—Rolling StoneRolling Stone: Review: Lymelife (April 2, 2009)
- "Startling performances, searing dialogue and an archaeologist's sense of late '70s period detail power the violently funny Lymelife. Intense perfs by Rory Culkin and Alec Baldwin are standouts in a movie that brims with vivid supporting turns."—VarietyVariety: Lymelife Review (September 12, 2008)
