It is so refreshing to see something original and intelligent in this time of remake after remake.
This story is wonderfully acted by Philip Baker Hall about an elderly man who has lost his wife and does not have anything more to live for. Arthur refuses to become a victim and saves the life of Joe the duck and Joe returns the favor. The powerful scene in the manicure shop is incredible!
The writer has a wonderful way of putting powerful social issues in perspective while peppering it with humor.
