Neurotic, sad and wonderful.

Sad at times, witty and stragely funny the next. The movie is phenomenal.
The Savages are a brother and sister, that are not that close, that come together to take care of their ailing father. They must decide what to do with him considering he has dementia. They did not have the best childhood, yet they never questioned the idea that they were responsible for their father.
Laura Linney and Phillip Seymour Hoffman offer us spellbinding performances, their characters are so tightly wound, so incredibly stressed and self-contained, that unraveling their emotions is an experience onto itself.
Phillip Bosco, as Lenny Savage, the father, manages to portray a man suffering from dementia. His performance is brilliantly sad and heart breaking. The loneliness and sense of loss that this man feels radiates through this actor. He managed to perfectly capture the essense of his character and delivered it to the lens.
The movie is excellent because it offers us a very well paced movie that allows us time to contemplate the scenes rather than absorbing them as they are. It reaches into our thought process and makes us think about what is going on in the movie. |
