Summary:
"Henry Poole Is Here stars Luke Wilson as Henry Poole, a disillusioned man who attempts to hide from life only to discover he cannot escape the forces of hope. Shattered by circumstances beyond his control, Henry Poole (Wilson) settles in to suburban isolation, but his well-meaning busybody neighbor (Academy Award Nominee Adriana Barraza of Babel), destroys his exile when she discovers a mysterious stain on Henry's stucco wall that is seen to have miraculous powers. With the help of the beautiful young divorcee next door (Radha Mitchell of Finding Neverland), and her daughter Millie (Morgan Lily), Henry finds himself gradually drawn back towards life as he realizes his plan to live out his days in quiet desperation is going to be much harder than he ever imagined. Cheryl Hines (Curb Your Enthusiasm) and George Lopez (The George Lopez Show) also star in this modern day tale about the unexpected wonders of the everyday from director Mark Pellington (U2 3D, The Mothman Prophecies)."--Container.
