Touching, real, sensitive and thoughtful. Definitely worth watching. I went because the releasing was limited and i don't wanted to miss this movie after Clive Owen's Oscar Rumour Buzz. An emotional--quite enjoyable entertaining story , i loved the screenplay and the supporting actors they were all touching and extremely talented. I really like the simplicity within this movie was made, it was real the emotions the acting and the movie. This movie made me cry. I really liked it. Clive Owen is amazing once again. I will not only watch it again but i will highly support the jury to give an Nom to Owen's Oscar Worthy performance. 8.5/10
