Mine: |
A charming movie. Wonderfully rich in character and subtlety. Nia who plays the lead, also wrote the screenplay, and does a great job at both. The general tone of the film is low key and that works very well. This is not a movie of overwrought emotion, but one of the actual emotions of real people. It is very funny, with out every degrading the characters. Michael Constantine as the father gets many of the good lines.
