Well crafted movie...Spoilers

Rating: 10/10 (31 October 2011)

Exceptionally well done film, loved every moment of it!
From the opening scene, music, cinematography, directing, acting, all blended to create a deeply interesting work of art.
The characters are so skillfully developed, some have a minimum of dialog, others have much more, but each has a unique ability to express themselves. It is easy to be quietly drawn into them.
Upon a second viewing, the scene of momentary, wishful hope he expresses to Irene, his voice softly humble as he stares at the floor is exceptionally poignant - and overlooked - considering the very next one which destroys everything. The look on his unveiled, stricken face after wards is powerful.
First viewing is great, second is even better since many scenes are so meaningful after understanding each character's nature. Great directing, cinematography, editing, acting, music, a great great film!
