CGiii Comment

It is not a great film simply because it is not a good story - a mother goes beyond the call of duty in order to protect her gay son.

It looks good.

Swinton gives her usual stoic performance.

McGehee & Siegel let go of the strings - with too many unacceptable mistakes.

Clue: Finger-prints, those revealing little blighters!

Sloppy work.

The(ir) Blurb...

With her husband perpetually away at work, a mother raises her children virtually alone. Her teenage son is testing the waters of the adult world, and early one morning she wakes to find the dead body of his gay lover on the beach of their rural lakeside home. What would you do? What is rational and what do you do to protect your child? How far do you go and when do you stop?
