Wasn't that moving for me

Rating: 7/10 (12 January 2006)

My advice is to wait for this to come out on DVD.
The film just didn't match the hype. The characters didn't move me all that much. Innis' daughter, Alma Jr. at 19, is the one I felt most for. She wants so much to be closer physically and emotionally with her father. The film never explains why Jenni, Innis' youngest daughter, never visits with her father.
As far as Innis' "strong, silent type", give me good dialog any day instead of constant close-ups.
This movie is a PRE "coming out" film. So what? Aren't there other more interesting subjects for movies?
