WHAT ARE CRITICS SAYING?

80

L.A. Weekly by

There is nothing obvious about this subtle yet powerfully subversive look into the emotional toll and confusion of dealing with a disabled child.
80

Variety by Deborah Young

Radiates a warm humanity and uplifts the spirit. Subtle rather than sentimental, it lacks easy tears though attentive viewers will find it lacerating enough.
63

New York Daily News by Elizabeth Weitzman

Both Rossi and Charlotte Rampling, as the mother of another young patient, do fine work. But the only surprises come at the end, too late to move us the way they should.
70

Wall Street Journal by Joe Morgenstern

An unusual amalgam of formulaic feel-goodism and shocking tough-mindedness, a movie that allows us to decode the inner life of its hero while he's decoding the world around him.
70

TV Guide Magazine by Ken Fox

Even more astonishing that the superb acting is the simple fact that director Gianni Amelio has managed to craft a touching tale of a father reunited with his disabled son without the slightest whiff of sentimentality.
80

Los Angeles Times by Kenneth Turan

Though it is a work of fiction, we have the sense every minute that we are watching something real, something with the unmistakable taste of life.
