    Any review that takes a cheap shot at the character's appearance (as well as a cheap assessment of her intellect that's totally off the mark) can't be trusted.

    Absolutely amazing film that rewards patient viewers. Feels like a classic etched in time. Though it's very good, not better than the Dardennes brothers' amazing "The Son".

    This kind of film, in its various manifestations recurring through the decades, gives us confidence that cinema can ultimately get to the heart of things.

    You feel it in your nervous system before you get a chance to reflect on its meaning.
