In 'Landline' two sisters (Abby Quinn & Jenny Slate) come to suspect their father (John Turturro) of cheating on their mother (Edie Falco). This is one of those 'everybody is a mess' movies. Set in mid 1990's New York City, I patted myself on the back for all the period references I got. The movie ran just a little long but on the whole worked better then I had suspected it would. A solid ensemble piece, with Jenny Slate particularly good at making endearing a character who might have otherwise come off as insufferable. ***
