Movie Haiku:Ophir-Winner starts strong but devolves into just another "quirky" male-bonding road movie. Ivanir plays title character, reluctantly drawn into tragedy when a foreign "guest worker" dies during a Jerusalem suicide bombing. Alas, Jan traveled mile after mile with these characters without coming to care much about any of them. Film not yet seen by Rich.
