Synopsis
Hanging Up (2000) is an American comedy-drama you can watch online on iFILM. Three sisters: Georgia (Diane Keaton) runs a women's magazine and everyone in it, Maddy (Lisa Kudrow) does so-so TV work, and Eve (Meg Ryan) handles whatever the other two won't. Their father Lou (Walter Matthau) is fading in a Los Angeles hospital. The sisters discuss this by phone.
The calls are constant. They fight, cry, talk past each other, hang up, dial back. Each has spent years building her own idea of who their father was — charming wreck, or just absent — and the hospital makes every version harder to hold onto.
Diane Keaton directed from Delia Ephron's adaptation of her own novel. Matthau was filming close to the end of his life; it ranks among his final screen appearances. The film is sad but not heavy — the sisters are too busy arguing for that. Stream Hanging Up (2000) on iFILM.
