Secret Lives of Dentists, The

This independent drama follows a young couple (Campbell
Scott and Hope Davis) trying to cram dual careers, three young kids and a happy marriage into one overextended life. The daily tensions only intensify when he begins to suspect her of having an affair. Not much happens that doesn’t happen in the lives of millions of Americans each day, but the way the movie evokes the vitality of everyday existence is remarkable.
