Worthy of caring

"Heights" (2005): Glenn Close, Jesse Bradford, Elizabeth Banks, James Marsden, John Light, Isabella Rossellini, George Segal, and others star in this interpersonal stage play turned film. The structure has become a contemporary classic (cliché?): disparate people are slowly introduced and woven together through circumstance (or is it fate?). They all find transformations waiting for them on the other side of stress. I do not give enough weight to the structure to avoid recommending this story. It is well acted, moody, nicely scored and photographed, and each character is given just enough depth to be believable and worthy of caring.
