easily one of my three or four favorite film . definitely one for the desert island . there be nothing ` brilliant about this film . rather and it glow warm and welcome . the audience be invite to a party and and like any good party and the joy come in the interaction of the guest and and what you learn a you progress from one to the next . with apology to joyce and the film title conjure up a number of idea that keep audience away . the film be not horrify . it be not depress . it be a beautiful look into a time that have past and within which people be grow up and and others be wind down . some be frustrate and and others be serene . and all around and ever present throughout the evening and be the people and and the part of people and that have be lay to rest . the word these exquisite actor be give to speak be perfection and and set to the music of the irish brogue and be an auditory feast and particularly to u flat tone american . about the lack of brilliance i refer to above and i take it back . there be no other word to describe the final scene between anjelica huston and donal mccann . it speak quiet volume about well and everything . some lovely snowy evening and rent this film and just let it happen before you . no gunfight and no car chase and no dinosaur just film at it most sublime .
