A Cool, Dry Place is a 1998 movie adapted by Matthew McDuffie from the novel Dance Real Slow by Michael Grant Jaffe. It was directed by John N. Smith. The movie stars Vince Vaughn, Monica Potter, Joey Lauren Adams and Bobby Moat. A large part of the film was not shot in Kansas, but rather in a little town in Ontario called Lindsay (now part of the city of Kawartha Lakes).

Synopsis

Russell Durrell (Vaughn) is an ambitious young lawyer with a fast moving career and great potential. Suddenly, however, his wife Kate (Potter) leaves him and their 5-year-old son (Moat), and Durrell moves with his son back to his small hometown in Kansas. Just as he is putting his life together and has found a new potential lover (Adams), his wife shows up, demanding custody of their son.

A rejected soundtrack was composed by Mike Mills of R.E.M..
