My First Mister (2001)

Mismatched. Misguided. Unmistakably friends.

Leelee Sobieski is brash, abrasive and vulnerable as a teenage child of divorce who hides her pain behind a mask of hard-edged gothic rebellion. Albert Brooks plays a man who is her total opposite, a precise and well-ordered menswear store owner of forty-nine who manages limited expectations and protects lonely secrets with pleasant ritual and quiet, ironic reserve. These two total opposites collide in conflict then come together in a surprising alliance, changing each other's lives forever.

Directed by: Christine Lahti

Cast: Albert Brooks, Leelee Sobieski, Desmond Harrington, Carol Kane, Mary Kay Place, Michael McKean, Rutanya Alda, Natasha Braisewell
