In Reply to: "The Son:" a French film from the brothers' Dardenne. posted by tinear on July 10, 2006 at 16:13:00:
I do not know his competition for the French oscar the year he won the award for this film, but, I greatly admired his work in this film, as he does not hit a wrong note, he does not act theatrical. He maintains a sullen appearance, but communicates, through facial gestures and his eyes, that there is so much more percolating below the surface. Even when the point of confrontation arrives, he does so more as a real human would do as opposed to a film caricature. A film caricature would have him respond with some type of violence. He simply wants answers. Penn's The Crossing Guard would be the closest American film to this French gem, and itself is very good.
