...shows the American Dream awakened by a nightmare. It takes place in the 1950s, the decade not only of Elvis but of The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit.

En annerledes men god film, filmen setter sine preg på hvordan det kan være når endringer i livet dekker for det som virkelig gjeller. Og dette er kanskje det beste jeg har sett av Leonardo sitt skuespill.
