This was one of the better films in the Tribeca film festival of 2005. The story was touching, simple, and compelling. Donald Sutherland did an outstanding job and deserves an award for this performance. I also felt the writer wrote a wonderful script with characters you truly cared about. I am not crazy about Joshua Jackson, who is not a very strong leading man or actor, but he barely pulls it off. If they cast a better actor in that role, it would have been amazing. The simplicity was the best part of this film and it proves that a powerful story is better than fancy camera work or show off directing. I highly recommend this film. Oscar nominations for best script and for Donald's performance.
