And yet Curtis Hanson's In

And yet Curtis Hanson's In Your Shoes, dismissed by a certain columnist as a good commercial film but not an awards-calibre thing, has an emotional resonance factor (it's not about shoes or bickering sisters but resolving family hurt) that might persuade some in the Academy to think about Oscar-ish distinctions. Maybe I'm alone on this one, but I don't think so. It got to me (and I can be kind of a hard-ass), and I've felt how it plays with a crowd. If any- one catches In Your Shoes at one of those sneak preview screenings being held across the country this evening (Saturday, 9.24), I'd appreciate some reactions.
