Riding in Cars with Boys with broad appeal as a tearjerker with humor Hardscrabble. Hands very popular director Penny Marshall, Beverly Donofrio Memoirs lose much of its best-selling real-life gravity, but its rich humanity back in abundance, especially since Drew Barrymore plays Donofrio with effortless charm. The film spans 20 years, pregnancy Bev to 15 in 1963 (actually 17 in the book), through welfare parenthood with a heroin-addicted husband (Steve Zahn) and semi-adult resentment as his teenage son (Adam Garcia) outweighs its ultimate goal of finishing college and publishing her memoirs. For all of Barrymore perseverance winning project is a good heart loser Zahn gives the film its true soul while giving a hint of honeyed sentiments Marshall. The equipment to pray for the subtle hint of James L. Brooks (who produced this and Marshall Big hit more difficult), but it will not stop the film to attract a legion of admirers.
