Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

Well maybe it can be said that this movie is sometime slow but not so much. The performances are very good , specially Hugo Weaving and Richard Dreyfuss are excellent and the movie have a poetic sense and fine dialog . The art designer is Gil Parrondo, who have won 2 academy awards with "Patton" and "Nicholas and Alexandra".This is an adaptation of a novel , a complex one. The screenplay is beautiful and the movie really flows, it's not contrived . This is not a cliché film or a conventional movie and does not disappoint . I really like this movie and I think it's one of the best Dreyfuss's performances ever, creating a subtle, intelligent , simple and wise old man.

I really love this movie! I think it's so gentle and sweet, and there's a lot of humor all through the film. I caught myself smiling most of the film, the humor is so gentle and subtle. However, I'd really love to buy a DVD of this movie, but I cannot find it for sale anywhere. I've been looking for more than a year and all I can find is the book - which I've bought of course. Can anyone help me to find a place where I can buy a DVD version of this wonderful movie?As I live in Norway the market is kinda limited, but I've checked out all the possibilities I'm familiar with. I need to go international for sure.Grateful for any help!

This film won the Adelaide International Film Festival's Audience Choice Award, and for good reason.This is beautiful story-telling; it's subtle, beautifully paced and visually magnificent. And if whoever wrote comment number one couldn't find subtext then he must have been watching a different film.I'm hoping against hope for an Australian release in the near future.

Richard dreyfuss is great in this movie. In all movies he make. I've seen this movie in my country, and i'm specting for the dvd because i like to see this movie in english because in spain the movies are dubbeds, and i have not a lot of opportunities for hear his real voice, and i hate it. I love the movies in original version(english of course)
