I saw this movie, a couple times actually, over the last week and I really enjoyed it. Zach Galifianakis was well used (unlike how he was in Dinner For Schmucks), both funny and poignant. Keir Gilchrist did a nice job of not seemingly overly pathetic for being an overwhelmed 16-year old with a fairly privileged life but a desire to kill himself & a real need to gain some perspective. The cast of character actors added real depth to roles that could have been cookie-cutter with lesser actors. And the overall tone of the movie closed in on, but never crossed the line to, saccharine. Just a really nice, engaging, funny and touching film.

Chloe By Drew Droege
These send-ups or Chloe Sevigny are absolutely hilarious. If you aren't familiar with her just watch a minute or so of this video. The Big Love actress just has a certain air about (not to mention a manish look) that is captured brilliantly by comedian Drew Droege. I really didn't know a lot about her and I still laughed out loud watching these clips. Short, sweet and very funny.
