Terry George, who already had made us cry with Hotel Rwanda in 2004, returns three years later with another drama as gripping and tearing.
This time, the film revolves around racial controversy and war but to a daily situation, the kind that can happen to anyone of us every day. A bereavement is always difficult be addressed and if it is a child of just 10 years is sometimes even more painful.
This is the situation of Ethan, his father tied up his son and the whole family.
The story compares these two families as the faces of the same coin with their parent-child relationship is particularly underlined.
one hand, the traditional family happy and serene, the other a divorce after all not ends up breaking the bond between father and son.
The film focuses mainly on the technique of suspense.
The facts are known from the beginning so the viewer does not discover anything new but simply wait for the unfolding of events and possible future reactions from players indicted.
Honour and merit to the director who manages as usual to distinguish his film with intimate and personal emotions of individual characters deepening their psychological side. merits but also to the wonderful acting of the main cast.
Joaquin Phoenix and Mark Ruffalo are a show in 'the first play, a father blinded by anger and revenge for the void left in him after the death of his son, the second a father just as good but inwardly eaten by remorse and guilt. Jennifer Connelly in the fragile Ethan's wife also gives her a good performance of acting.
The theme is therefore that of death. Road of death in this case. As in Hotel Rwanda is possible to read behind the intention of directing a complaint to this type of events that most of the time tend to reward the guilty and not to better protect the victims. Promoted
