Tied for the best movie I have ever seen

Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
