    Garnish: The Odd Life of Timothy Green

    August 14, 2012 /

    If you’ve seen the trailers for The Odd Life of Timothy Green, you know the deal – cute, simple Midwest couple (Jennifer Garner and Joel Edgerton) are told to give up on having a child, as one or both of them is incapable of procreating progeny.
