Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
A powerful and poignant motion picture not about racism and redemption, as one might initially suppose, but about one of the most urgent and universal of human needs -- that of finding solace for pain and loneliness.

[Forster] tells his story with directness and simplicity and without the high hallmarks of the soaps' gooey emotional lubrication.

A textbook example of fearless filmmaking, exhibiting a brand of gritty realism that's hard to watch but impossible to ignore.

A serious movie made by seriously talented people, and I never quite came 'round to it.
– Mark Caro,

fresh:
It's not a polemic on the death penalty, race relations or family dynamics. It's a character study that really sticks with you.
