CGiii Comment
The selfishness of coming out in later life - the heartbreak experienced by the wife, the confusion of the children.
The intelligence is in the writing - the strength in the acting - the direction is almost superfluous.
Complex on many levels - it will make you think.
Thoroughly recommended.
No trailer...
The(ir) Blurb...
