Movie Haiku:Hayley (Browning) has it all: promising career as an "edgy" singer/songwriter; gorgeous husband (Gigandet); adorable twin babies. Then her brother/musical partner dies of a drug overdose & her world teeters on collapse. Hardwicke, with her typical in-your-face style, pushes intensity to the max until Samuel (as the new guitarist) careens over the edge. Not yet seen by Rich.
