Mumford
Some towns have all the fun.
Directed by Lawrence Kasdan
Produced by Touchstone Pictures
A warm, playful ensemble comedy-drama about a charming fake therapist who helps a quirky small town heal while harboring secrets and falling for a patient.
When a would-be psychologist, curiously named Dr. Mumford, comes to the idyllic town of the same name and offers his talent for listening and a disarming frankness, the town's quirkiest citizens scramble for a seat on his couch. As he lightens hearts darkened by old secrets no one realizes he's hiding a whopper of his own, or that he's fallen head over heels for one of his patients!
