A history of violence
Jan. 1st, 2006 04:45 pmLet's just say that the only way I could tell that A history of violence was a Cronenberg movie was by the single teeth shot ;)
I loved this movie, because it manages to tell a story with very human means. Dialogue is minimal, and acting is superb - not only from Viggo, though he's amazing. Some motifs are cliches, but the acting turns them into something real. It's short, it packs a punch, and it leaves you with a warm feeling unspoiled by any Hollywood ending. It feels real. Highly recommended.
