"Grand Canyon" is a lot of things at once, thought provoking, completely fascinating. Grand Canyon's scenes unfold throughout L.A. and Kasdan brilliantly plays on everyday scenarios of commutes, dodgy neighborhoods, and family tensions. The characters and situations were realistic. An excellent ensemble cast. Winner of 3 Awards have you seen "Grand Canyon"?
