FRIENDS ARE FAMILY IN CATCH AND RELEASE

The cast of Catch And Release say that their film shows the meaning of family in a different way.

Families aren’t just nuclear anymore which is a theme that is explored in the film Catch And Release. Jennifer Garner stars as a bride whose fiancé dies and when she can no longer afford their apartment moves into his bedroom where he lived with his best friends.

Jennifer who has a brand new family with husband Ben Affleck and baby Violet says families change as you get older.

“And it’s about friendship. I love my family. I’m really close with my sisters. I love my parents but I don’t live close to them. So if something happens in my life I’ll talk to them no the phone but really I’m with my friends. Really I lean on my friends. And you do kind of create a family wherever you live as you get older.”

Kevin Smith and Sam Jaeger play the best friends who become Garner’s roommates. Both guys agree that friends are family too.

“That’s kind of the world we live in. It’s the world everybody lives in like when you’re not working you’re usually with your friends if you’re not in a relationship and thankfully all your characters are single otherwise it would be kind of weird and awkward. Sam: And I think so often when something traumatic happens in life you don’t run necessarily to your parents, but you run to your best friends.”

Best friends grow into a love relationship in Catch and Release when Garner surprisingly falls for one of her fiance’s buddies, Deadwood star Timothy Olyphant.
