i just read all the comment . some love it . some be bore with it . some be and in my opinion and just try to be supercritic . here the thing though . have work in the business of social work and counseling and and have experience the real world of some of these very real problem . . . i would like to simply add the comment that i think the movie be so real it hurt . i think the script be very realistic . it never go for the possible extra to hype it up . they could easily have let the former professor and his former student have an affair and they do not . they could easily have play up the manipulation of the boy against the psychologist and they do not . in all that it downplay and the realistic speaking type of performance and we be allow to see the wretched grief and and anger and and block memory that do come out with horror and a bang . it be real . it be superb . it be well than that . from script and to act and to film shot and to edit and from direct and and produce and from cast so perfectly a real woman who look like a real mother and and even the psychologist special lecture to the student at the beginning . it be all so real . so real it hurt .
