"Meet Silver. Forty-four, divorced and living alone, his once celebrated music career is now a faded memory and his ex-wife is about to marry another man. The only good thing in Silver's life is his Princeton-bound teenage daughter, Casey - although she would probably say the exact opposite about him.

But then Casey drops a bombshell: she's pregnant. Silver knows things have got to change, and when he discovers he has a fatal heart condition, he decides it's time to make a list: 1. Be a better father; 2.

Be a better man; 3. Fall in love; 4. Die.
