A simple and elegant story of two cross-generational kindred spirits meeting by chance. So brilliantly written, directed and acted. Murray showed a depth never seen before. With the exception of a few brief lapses, he managed to suppress his Murrayism.

I actually guffawed at the commercial shoots where Murray conveyed his muted frustration and delighted at the clean and pure nature of his relationship with Scarlett: nothing lurid, nothing profane.

Murray could well score an Ossky for this and probably deserves it--along with Sophia's direction of story, the editing, and cinematography.
