    You can't ever go wrong with Dustin Hoffman and Susan Sarandon--masters at their craft. This film tells such a beautiful story, and if you've ever lost someone, you feel what these characters feel at the moment they feel it. I loved the truth in this film--the fact that a daughter/fiancee was murdered, yet the manner in which she died was so minor to the film, just as it is in life. When you lose someone, there's not a damn thing that can bring them back, no matter how they left this earth.

    Simply put, this film explores grief and redemption on so many levels that it left me drained and wanting more. Love, in all its complex and intimate forms, are left for us here to make sense of our own lives--exactly what we yearn for from films.

    Good movie. Felt like I was right back there in the 70's. When things were simpler yet more intense. When it was enough to get a handle on your own issues and the larger world seemed, at least, to revolve in a separate dimension. More than a few rich exchanges between the characters.

    This little known movie is a wonderful movie about mourning. The cast is great and all of the characters are full and well thought out. The ending is bittersweat. It's a sad topic told in a humorous, human way. The music is spot on. Everyone should see this movie.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Ein Skalpellschnitt in einen Aspekt der US-amerikanischen kollektiven Sozialkonditionierung
    Reviewed in Germany on December 17, 2015
    Die ganze Story lebt von der gesellschaftlichen Prägung, die es üblich und für die Individuen fast zwingend sein lässt, einander aus Schonung und falsch verstandener Rücksichtnahme, aber auch aus egoistischen Imagegründen nicht die Wahrheit zu sagen, sondern darüber hinweg zu heucheln. Man tut das, obwohl im Grunde jeder weiß, dass man sich in die Tasche lügt. Im Film geht es darum, dass ein junger Mann sich aus diesem Geflecht von Unsicherheit, Selbsttäuschung, Heuchelei und Verdrängung zu befreien und zu sich und seiner Wahrheit zu stehen sucht. Unter dem Druck der sozialen Erwartungen braucht er solange dafür, bis er vor einem Gericht als Zeuge aussagen soll, und die Rechtsanwältin ihn um ihrer Manipulationsabsichten willen zu einer falschen Aussage nötigen will. Als er seine inneren Barrieren endlich überwunden und der Wahrheit Bahn gebrochen hat, hat das einen befreienden und erlösenden Effekt auf die in ihren Verstrickungen Verhafteten. Die erstklassige Darstellerriege macht diese Zusammenhänge unter einer gekonnten Regie glaubwürdig deutlich. Es tut richtig gut, mit Ellen Pompeo einmal nicht ein kosmetisch aufgemotztes Glamourgirl vorgeführt zu bekommen, sondern eine natürliche, unverbildete und deshalb sehr sympathische junge Frau, in die sich zu verlieben ein ebenso natürlicher wie erfreulicher Vorgang ist. Sehenswert!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Watch this film!
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 25, 2008
    It is rare that you meet a film as charming, beautiful, amusing and well-acted as this one. It is an utter gem, being relatively unknown, and its sparity of circulation simply heightens its appeal, making it seem that you alone are sharing in this wonderful secret.

    I would beg people to watch this film as vigorously as I could, and yet I would be slightly hesitant as I did so, wanting rather to keep it to myself, such is its personal tone and style.

    The characters are very well crafted and fantastically portrayed by Jake Gyllenhaal, Dustin Hoffman and Susan Sarandon. Silberling really hit a sweet spot when he chose a dead character as the pivot around which the film is founded, keeping the audience guessing.

    The script is polished and the attention to detail almost makes you weep with admiration.

    I have to restrain myself here, but whatever you do before you die, make sure you watch this film!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Heartbreaking study of grief.
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 17, 2015
    This is a heartbreaking study of grief, with strong performances all around. Dustin Hoffman is the Graduate Benjamin 40 years on, and is masterful as the father battling extreme bereavement - particularly effective in the scene when he visits the site of his daughter's pointless death. Susan Sarandon is pretty much as you could expect, but a real class act. Jake Gyllenhaal captures the confusion of the situation well, and the film has a killer soundtrack. Recommended
