Writing, Directing and Acting - one of the best I've seen in a while.


I watch a movie every day.. it does get boring... I get them from the library, and have
an interesting way of selecting them.. Most of the movies I see are OK.. but..

This film has a tone, and mood, and the writing, directing and acting are GREAT.

It isn't often that a movie will grab my attention, even though it seems low key and down
played in the plot/situation.. This is really an art house film.. a VERY moving film.. Great acting

I can't believe it only has achieved a 6.0 rating here.

I think the people at Sundance who gave it the top prize years ago knew what they were
saying when they granted the award.

Enjoy all... Ira Sachs..(the Director/writer) - I'll look for more great films from you... thank you..

(And I did recently see 'Keep the Lights on' - which I also enjoyed)
