an exceptional film

i didn't now what to expect from this film, but it was a great success on every level. the characters, the script, the suspense, all top form. i was especially impressed with phoenix and lorna's scenes together. it's not often that love stories in movies really work but this one does with a great poignancy, but their chemistry (for a couple of kids who look 14)together was better than most adults. I guess somebody must have picked up on it after mosquito coast.
