It's not often, now a days, that such performances are given in movies. I actually hadn't heard about it prior to a couple of days ago, when on the cable channel WE they had a special about the movie and how it was made. Which in turn made me want to see it. Very rarely do I go out to the theater.

I'm curious to know if you found any parts of it relatable to your own experiences. Not looking for anything specific. I found many instances I could relate too. Although not a perfect match, I could understand, relate and had some experience.

Did you read the reviews of it in the Movie Group? siligut Feb 2014 #8
I thought the acting was great, but I thought the dialog was lackluster. PassingFair Feb 2014 #9
