The Post-Gazette reviews movies from a family perspective:

'Stranger Than Fiction'

Rated: PG-13.

Suitable for: Mature tweens and up.

What you should know: This is a quirky, smart comedy starring Will Ferrell as an IRS agent who hears a voice in his head narrating his life. That brings him in contact with a literature professor, a suicidal novelist and a baker who brings some sweetness into his life.

Language: One f-word and a half-dozen milder curses.

Sexual situations and nudity: A man fantasizes about a woman. Men are shown naked, from behind, in a communal shower at a pool. Passionate kisses lead to an off-camera coupling.

Violence/scary situations: Lots of vividly imagined deaths and one disturbing accident.

Drug and alcohol use: Nothing notable.

'A Good Year'

Rated: PG-13.

Suitable for: Mature tweens and older moviegoers.

What you should know: Russell Crowe is a London investment expert who inherits a small French chateau and vineyard from his late uncle. Settling into the sunny countryside, he begins to re-evaluate his way of life and remember how much his uncle and the Provence retreat meant to him.

Language: One use of the f-word and roughly a dozen milder curses or words.

Sexual situations and nudity: There's a reference to an illegitimate daughter, a naked sunburned back is soothed with ice, and a couple kiss and start to undress. The camera cuts away, but it's obvious they spent the night together.

Violence/scary situations: On the very mild side, including a road mishap, diving board accident and scorpions that spook but don't harm.

Drug and alcohol use: Wine, cognac and other alcohol are consumed, sometimes to excess.
