Dialogue in this movie very good. It's perceptive, emotional, and somber. Each of the lead characters in the movie are dealing with some sort of emotional stress, and it manifests itself in what is said and actions or non-actions pretty realistically. The romance created was very well handled too...nothing really over-the-top, but rather the pain and anguish the Dad is experiencing from the present and past emphasized. We know it will take time, and so the movie does a great job of inferring to us what will happen. Would've liked to have seen perhaps a little more development with the younger brother, but that's minor. On the whole the movie only runs about 90 min, and its pacing is deliberate, thoughtful, and slow, but its nonetheless a good movie and drama.
