Katie and Bridget go and plant some flowers (since this movie doesn't have any) as they re-watch: Garden State! It's a movie that checks all the quirky bingo boxes INCLUDING having your star be Zach Braff! Come along as we meet Andrew, an emotionally stunted man who is traveling back to his home state of New Jersey for his paraplegic Mother's funeral! Oh did we mention that he had accidently caused his Mom's paraplegia? By pushing her when he was 9 years old and she accidently hit her neck? Then his Dad (who's also his psychiatrist) decided to send him away for years and years to boarding schools so they didn't have to live with him anymore? ...Yeah it's all kind of messed up! But when Andrew meets Sam, a woman who does not have brain damage but does have a pet semetary in her backyard, he discovers what it means to truly feel things again! Released in 2004, it was written and directed by Zach Braff who stars alongside Natalie Portman, Peter Sarsgaard, and Ian Holm.
