[email protected] [email protected] MADE-UP Synopsis MADE-UP, a droll satire on our culture’s obsession with appearance is Tony Shalhoub’s stunning directorial debut. Working from a richly layered script, which crosscuts between characters who are facing real truths and the documentary crew who are filming them, Shalhoub spins a mordantly comic tale. When Elizabeth (Brooke Adams) gave up her acting career to become a wife and mother, it was a liberating choice. She let her hair go gray, stopped worrying about every extra pound, and laughed when her teenage daughter Sara (Eva Amurri) nagged her about her appearance. But now that her husband Duncan (Gary Sinise) has left her for a much younger woman (played by Light Eternity), her daughter’s desperation to give her an overhaul starts to resonate.
