Movie review for the day (God's Pocket)

Rico says the ladyfriend has been known to pick some odd movies, but God's Pocket is now at the top of the list.
Set in a working-class suburb of Philadelphia, it starred a lot of good people: Philip Seymour Hoffman as Mickey Scarpato, Christina Hendricks as the well-endowed Jeanie Scarpato, John Turturro as Arthur 'Bird' Capezio, and Richard Jenkins as Richard Shellburn, a columnist for the local newspaper.
There was a lot of inter-marital and extra-marital sex (some of it relatively explicit), a lot of explosive (mostly drunken) violence, a lot of drinking in bars, and generally depressing behavior:

When Mickey's crazy step-son Leon is killed in a construction 'accident', nobody in the working class neighborhood of God's Pocket is sorry he's gone. Mickey tries to bury the bad news with the body, but, when the boy's mother demands the truth, Mickey finds himself stuck in a life-and-death struggle between a body he can't bury, a wife he can't please, and a debt he can't pay.

Rico can't really recommend it, unless you need a good downer for some reason...
