About this product

Product Information

Alan Rickman has a made a career of stealing scenes in supporting roles, but he takes the lead in SNOW CAKE. Whether he's playing Severus Snape in the Harry Potter movie or the voice of God in DOGMA, Rickman provides a fascinating combination of dry wit and gravitas that also serves him well here. Flanked by Carrie-Anne Moss and Oscar nominee Sigourney Weaver, Rickman's performance provides the core of this character-driven drama. Though Weaver's best roles are as strong and independent women in films like the Alien quadrilogy and WORKING GIRL, she's fascinating to watch in her role as an autistic woman.Rickman plays Alex Hughes, a lonely man driving to Winnipeg to meet someone from his past. Along the way, he meets a spunky young woman named Vivienne who is desperate for a ride home to her mother. But a car accident leaves Vivienne dead and Alex full of guilt, and he goes to the small town of Wawa, Ontario, to meet Vivienne's mother. In Wawa, he discovers that her mother, Linda (Weaver), is an autistic woman. She convinces him to stay for a few days, and he meets her beautiful neighbor, Maggie (Moss). With the help of Linda and Maggie, Alex may be able to move beyond his troubled history. SNOW CAKE isn't for those who need an elaborate plot or explosions. Instead, it's a rewarding drama for adults that also features a great soundtrack from Broken Social Scene, Feist, Super Furry Animals, and the Stereophonics.

A look into the human soul
Sigourney Weaver and Alan Rickman are brilliant in this. While I'm a little jaded with star turns at 'Rain Man' type roles, Weaver really gives believable life to her character. Rickman is perfect as the tormented driver whose car was rammed, killing the young woman (the daughter of Weaver's character) to whom he had given a lift. He was already recovering from the unimaginably tragic effects of an earlier car that was rammed, taking the life of the son he hadn't known he had and whom he was on his way to meet when the son was killed. Despite the tragedy, this isn't about despair. There is, if not resolution, acceptance and understanding achieved, a way to go on going on with hope. It's rewarding to watch without being depressing or too pat.Sigourney Weaver and Alan Rickman are brilliant in this.

"Dazlicous"
Hippie child Vivienne (the adorable Emily Hampshire) has a knack for finding the quiet souls in life -- the ones who have a story in there somewhere. When she gloms onto Alex Hughes (Alan Rickman) in a roadside cafe, she soon grows on the man who definitely didn't want to be glommed onto. Though at first he says no, he eventually yields to her request for a ride to get Vivienne closer to her mom's home. In a curious way, it's probably the best thing Alex has done for himself in a very long time. His long repressed smile and even a chuckle or two escape thanks to the vivacious Vivienne. But then the unthinkable happens. Alex's car is hit by a semi and young Vivienne is dead. Alex is compelled by his own guilt to make a visit to Vivienne's mother to explain what happened and console her, ...

In a curious way, it's probably the best thing Alex has done for himself in a very long time. His long repressed smile and even a chuckle or two escape thanks to the vivacious Vivienne. But then the unthinkable happens. Alex's car is hit by a semi and young Vivienne is dead. Alex is compelled by his own guilt to make a visit to Vivienne's mother to explain what happened and console her, and to give her some sparkly trinkets he knew Vivienne was taking to her. Alex didn't at first know what he was walking into upon arriving at Linda's home in a small town in Ontario. Linda (Sigourney Weaver) took the news of her daughter's death without emotion, with a certain matter-of-factness. Alex is puzzled by this but upon watching Linda's "bizarre" behavior, he comes to realize what one form of adult autism is. He stays on with Linda for the arrival of her parents and then for the funeral. The funeral means nothing at all to Linda. She lives in a world of her sparklies, snow, and dancing free-heartedly to her own music. After the funeral, neighbors convene at Linda's house for the sharing of food and condolences but this proves to be much more than the suspicious, fearful, compulsive and antisocial Linda can handle. I was pretty much mystified by Alex' romantic involvement with Linda's neighbor, Maggie (Carrie Anne Moss), but then realized that the relationship was merely a contrivance so Alex could reveal the specifics of his imprisonment for murder. I rather wish there would have been another way to reveal this information because I didn't feel the added character actually added anything to the story. In the end, this is a story of acceptence even without understanding, and seeing Rickman share 50/50 in this bittersweet tale with the likes of Weaver made for a powerful experience. A marvelous soundtrack with music by the Stereophonics, Super Furry Animals, Broken Social Scene, and Feist.

Snow Cake doesn't reveal itself as the perfect title until the two lead characters separate to continuing becoming themselves.
No one does the development of his inner motivations and conflicts the way Alan Rickman achieved them. I could not believe I was seeing Susan Saradon as autistic. I'm ranking this right up with Song of Lunch for the final moment of insight that spares us from mourning the character.

Original, surprising, wonderful
One of the best movies I've seen in a long time. Stunning scenery, a great, highly original script, good acting- subtle, quiet, multi-layered, nuanced- crept right into my heart. Reminded me in some ways of another favorite, Bagdad Café. Through happenstance people come together and are changed as a result, and in surprising ways- unpredictable. Russian psychologist Lev Vygotsky wrote decades ago about transformation in literature, wherein in some cases seemingly sad themes can produce the opposite effect, as if by magic. Though ostensibly about misfortune, loss, disability, and chasms between people, it's really about generosity and what's best in us, the better angels of our nature, as Abraham Lincoln said. Moving, inspiring, liberating, about the possibilities in life, yet so subtle the ... One of the best movies I've seen in a long time.

Moving, inspiring, liberating, about the possibilities in life, yet so subtle the effect is nearly subliminal. Though everyone was very good, I was especially delighted to see a young Emily Hampshire (Stevie from Schitt's Creek). This is a film to watch again and again, LOVED it!

This is a movie I heard about from a friend who is also a fan of Alan Rickman. Sigourney Weaver should really have won an academy award for her portrayal of Linda. The whole cast is excellent and even though the subject is hard to watch in parts, this is a wonderful film.
