"Absolutely remarkable." - Roger Ebert, Siskel & Ebert
Manny (Scarlett Johansson, Lost in Translation, The Horse Whisperer) and Lo (Aleksa Palladino) are a two-person crime wave - on the lam and headed for trouble. Their next target: looney, frumpy spinster Mary Kay Place (Sweet Home Alabama, The Big Chill). It seems that the juvenile version of Thelma & Louise is in need of a full-time babysitter, and they're not above kidnapping one!
Critics have been captured and enraptured by Manny & Lo, calling it "the most original and unexpected family values film of the year" (Jay Carr, The Boston Globe). Step into the station wagon and join a couple of adorable parole violators and their kooky hostage for the wildest ride of the year.
