With an unexpected visit from his 11-year-old daughter (Elle), Johnny is forced to look at the questions every father has to confront. Cleo surprisingly shows up and begins to grow fond of him, getting Johnnys connection to the real world to revive in her. As soon as Cleo leaves Marco is terribly lost but with the gift of being someone different.

Notable Quotes
""I'm not a father myself, but I do have two young sisters and I had to try and develop that kind of relationship with Elle Fanning. So I used to pick her up from school and take her to her volleyball games, and that gave me a taste of responsibility. But the more time we spent together, the more we bonded and by the time we were shooting, we never felt like we were having to try. I actually couldn't have asked for a better director or actress." "
- Stephen Dorff ('Jonny')
"I was in L.A. meeting with [executive producer] Fred Roos and he told me that he had seen Elle at a screening of The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, which she had a part in and which he said she was great in, and that in person she just had something about her – and that we should meet her. I was thinking, "Oh, she’s going to be this professional Hollywood Kid, and probably not what I had in mind." I wanted a kid who would feel real, and a contrast from the showbiz world. But we met Elle and were really taken with her. She was at the exact age I wanted. Fred wanted us to meet all the young actresses out there, and I did but I kept comparing them to her; “She’s not Elle.” You want to watch Elle; she stands out, she has this sparkle, she is full of life, and she brings so much to Somewhere. I tried not to interfere too much with what she was doing, because she’s so good and was so instinctual."
- Sofia Coppola (Director)
