The story is told with so much heart, has a message that is still valid and important, no matter how often it was sent before, the characters are believable, and Paul Bettany ... Seriously, Paul Bettany! What on Earth does have to happen that this extraordinary and versatile actor finally gets the recognition and accolades he deserves? His performance here is absolutely nuanced and on point. If this man would finally start to toot his own horn instead of just being support to lesser talented colleagues or buddies in big movies, he could be an A-lister.ttsandwichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02863604461470360938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13372093.post-48949195637259203862020-12-03T21:45:57.385-05:002020-12-03T21:45:57.385-05:00Great movie...I loved the message...The time perio...Great movie...I loved the message...The time period...I can see a point of too many characters...I would love to see the movie focus on the main three characters and mix in more of the living gay in that time period...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13372093.post-73613919615644922562020-12-03T20:49:52.465-05:002020-12-03T20:49:52.465-05:00If you see the film as a dumbed down message film,...If you see the film as a dumbed down message film, at least it has the right message.

I was surprised at how moved I was by the simplistic ending. All due to Bettany. And last time I looked there was a divide between audience response to the movie and critics which seems more and more the case. I'm not exactly sure what that says about audiences...or...critics.

The acting was quite good and there are some superb performers in it. Besides Paul Bettany, there is Margo Martindale, Steve Zahn, Judy Greer, Alan Campbell (whom I saw on Broadway in Sunset Blvd.) and Stephen Root!Piercenoreply@blogger.com
