Nothing Personal (I) (2009)
8/10
Powerful Indie Drama
20 September 2012
Warning: Spoilers
This film directed by Urszula Antoniak is what I would call non-gimmicky non-formulaic independent film. It's basically a two person film with terrific laid back performances from Stephen Rea, a wonderful Irish actor, and Lotte Verbeek, a Dutch actress.

Verbeek is mysterious drifter who comes upon Rea's isolated home on the Irish coast. At first, she is hostile to any interactions with him. However, over time in slow and subtle ways they begin to bond. It all leads to what I thought was a touching and appropriate ending.

I found this to be a surprisingly quiet wonderful film. For those with no patience probably not the film for you.
