comments van welke film?
A simply yet beautifully filmed drama that does not over-complicate or over-glorify the issues at hand - the film simply feels real, tackling strong emotions without the production feeling like typical Hollywood kitsch. The film does not seem like a TV melodrama either, with the quality of the acting, if nothing else, taking it to a high level. gives off one his career's best, most human performances, whilst shines as a youth who blames himself for others' problems but yet still contributes a lot of blame to his mother. Some of the scenes are really well edited too, and in fact there is little that jumps out as being a flaw in the film. Arguably, it touches on a psychological base a bit too much, and perhaps there is a bit too much maudlin music, but there is really little wrong with this film, which is perceptive, touching, and far off being ordinary.

more as a director than an actor, and when this movie came out, I remembered being very dubious about seeing it. (Word of mouth at the time was pretty amazing, though, and that's what prompted me to get over it.) But once seen (and re-seen several times), I have made a point of catching all of I won't rehash the plot, others have done a good job of that, but I will say that this is much more a character study of a family than it is plot-driven. So many character studies are somewhat contrived ("Rosebud" anyone?*), but this felt so *real*, real family dynamics, real behaviors, real reactions and interactions. And the simplest subtlest scenes tell most of the story. For example, pay attention to a scene early in the movie between the son, , and his mother in the upstairs hallway. The attention to detail is stunning, and yet barely noticeable unless you're looking for it. All you know is that you have suddenly grasped a whole new level of understanding about these characters. is, if you'll forgive the cliché, a revelation. Especially for those of us who grew up with her sitcoms.

is, if you'll forgive the cliché, a revelation. Especially for those of us who grew up with her sitcoms.That said, as the plot does unwind through the experiences of each family member, it does ultimately pack a pretty hefty emotional wallop, as in the kind you thought you should have seen coming, and didn't. It still gets me every time.
This movie doesn't get nearly the attention as a "classic" that it deserves. See it and I'd guarantee you'd help change that.
* And for you Welles fans out there, no offense, I do appreciate that Citizen Kane represented a whole new way to make a movie and respect Orson Welles' presence in the canon of breakthrough/visionary movie makers.

There is a longstanding rumor that in the early drafts of the script, Dr. No turned out to be a monkey.
