shower keep within itself in so many way . almost all of the movie take place in an old time bathhouse and with the denizen supply the humor and pathos and and emotional touch . the love and friendship between the proprietor and his retarded son be deep and move . the way the old brother be draw into this tiny world seem unforced and persuasive . the plot be meander and full of surprise and irony and and touch overall by a sense of what i would have to call neighborliness in the relation and conflict of the performer . this be a film i pull out when i want to believe in the world again .
