Movie Haiku:Overly sincere drama about the “meaning of life.” A dying man seeks escape from the ravages of his illness, struggling to end his life on his own terms. Harris is terrific as is Kidman (as writer Virginia Woolf). Moore & Streep, however, both have more physical “presence” than inner life.
