Want to know what happens to you after you die? Well, "Defending Your Life" explains it all. With Albert Brooks directing, writing, and starring in it, "DFYL" is all that unique Brooks brand of understated, poker-faced, droll comedy. The film begins with Brooks' death and ends with his...well, you'll find out. A clean, crisp, creative piece, the film's romantic subplot doesn't seem to work too well. Brooks and Streep just don't look right together, IMHO. Nonetheless, those with a taste for Brooks' comedy won't be disappointed by this tasty little flick about what's beyond life.
