Junebug

Madeleine (Embeth Davidtz) is not asked to accompany the family to the hospital when Ashley (Amy Adams) goes into labor, so she goes to talk the eccentric artist into giving her his paintings for the gallery, and after a few lies, she succeeds. Meanwhile, Ashley loses her baby, and George (Alessandro Nivola) is the only one who can comfort her. Madeleine eventually helps Eugene (Scott Wilson) find his screwdriver, but she and Peg (Celia Weston) never hit it off. George and his brother Johnny (Ben McKenzie) never resolve their issues, but Johnny tells Ashley they can try for another baby. George and Madeleine get in the car and head back to Chicago, both glad to leave North Carolina and get back to their lives.
