Possibly the first time Mr Ironside took his shoes off for the sake of realism. I'm assuming this is an example of the Canadian Method school of acting. I'm curious to know if it's widely used or is it just Mr Ironside's own personal trade mark. To be fair this little film is more than passable, it has many more things to recommend than the previously mentioned feet. The young son who has the cap, reminds me of some one, I just cant think who. The film is a nice little snap shot of fathers and sons missing each others meanings. Although it does have resolution, a nice touch, you are still left feeling that this family will never be healed and whole.
