100Filmed in a leisurely, understated style, this dark comedy is downright entrancing. A spectacular directorial debut.
-
80Michael Schorr's delightfully deadpan comedy debut blew away the German box office, and once you let yourself sink into its gentle rhythms, as slow and deliberate as those of its protagonist and inflected with tiny but significant shifts of pace and tone, you'll see why.
-
75A sweet and charming treat.
-
60Krause is completely believeable as the solid old man, and though the story moves slower than molasses, it leaves the same dark aftertaste.
