In Good Company

Dennis Quaid stars as Dan Foreman, an ad salesman whose new, 26-year-old boss (Topher Grace) takes an interest in his daughter (Scarlett Johansson). This may sound like a wacky farce, but the sly twist of this knowing comedy from director Paul Weitz (About a Boy) is the way Dan’s practical, workmanlike personality guides him through a
would-be midlife crisis.
