David Lynch at its best

Rating: 9/10 (17 May 2001)

This is how films should be made. Unique directing, excellent cast, memorable performances by Hurt and Hopkins and a touching story. The subject is tough and the movie handles it without being pedantic. The whole film has some great moments but the very last scene is simply superb. While I hate tear-jerkers, I admit it was masterfully shot. A must see.
