This movie is differert from anything I've seen in recent years. It asks you to meet it on its own terms and to take the time it demands to draw you in. But if you let it work its magic, you'll be rewarded big time. The performances are so real, headed by David Strathairn in another amazing turn. Jane Adams and everyone else is wonderful. This is one of those films that draws you in and doesn't let you go. Give this one a chance, be patient with it, and if you're willing to allow a film to slowly wash over you and engage your mind as well as your heart , then you're in for a cinematic treat.
