Movie Reviews

Combustible Celluloid - 9/10 by Jeffrey M. AndersonThis superb movie helps restore [Weber's] reputation.
New Yorker - 9/10 by Richard BrodyWeber films this pain-seared drama with a meticulous eye for the telling detail-worn-out shoes, torn carpet, tatty furniture-and for the nuances of social observation and concealments on which pride and shame depend.
Classic Film and Television - 6/10 by Michael E. GrostVivid look at income inequality and ordinary people struggling to get by, in a society where only the rich make a decent living.
User Review - 8/10 by Michael TPerceptive look at class warfare in the USA.
User Review - 6/10 by Greg Wa social movie from the woman who made 400 movies of which this and a hand full of others atre all that exhilsts.
User Review - 6/10 by Aj VThe romance here is quite average for a movie like this. The actors are average too, no one really stood out for me. Overall an okay movie, not bad but not good either.
User Review - 4/10 by Mark DA confusing movie due to it's lack of to identify whose story it is. More about making a bland point than telling a good story.
