But shadowing him is James Coburn, who won an Academy Award for this performance, and frankly, he deserves it. Coburn is breathtaking. The movie itself has some nice direction. Wade flashes back to his childhood, and those scenes involve grainier film, and are a little quieter. They are very effective.
Affliction is a very good movie with very good acting.
