The airline doesn’t want Verona (Maya Rudolph) to fly when she and Burt (John Krasinski) get to the ticket counter, because they claim she looks 8 months pregnant. I have heard of this rule before, but asked my stepfather who flew with Pan Am and said he never heard of such a rule. It’s funny anyway and I am have a blast watching Away We Go film clips.

Watching this film clip of Sam Mendes’ Away We Go illustrates his directorship in film. The subtle and yet poignant moments creates a full picture of the story, the shortcomings of the innocent in a cerebral manner.

Exploring the comedic twists and emotional turns in one couple’s journey across contemporary America, Away We Go is the new movie from Academy Award-winning director Sam Mendes, from the first original screenplay by novelists Dave Eggers & Vendela Vida, and featuring music by singer/songwriter Alexi Murdoch.
Longtime (and now thirtysomething) couple Burt (John Krasinski) and Verona (Maya Rudolph) are going to have a baby. The pregnancy progresses smoothly, but six months in, the pair is put off and put out by the cavalierly delivered news from Burt’s parents Jerry and Gloria (Jeff Daniels and Catherine O’Hara) that the eccentric elder Farlanders are moving out of Colorado – thereby eliminating the expectant couple’s main reason for living there.
One of my favorite DP, Ellen Kuras, shot this movie. I am so happy that she had a chance to work with a talented director like Mendes. Way to go girl!
