Review of Lore (2012) by Joe M — 14 Jul 2013

If you have seen the movie "The Road" and liked it, you will like this movie. There is not one moment of joy, or levity, but this movie is good in it's dismal way. Much is communicated with simple looks, gestures, expressions.

The dialogue is in short spurts, but what is said means a lot. You experience the struggles of a group of children with their teen age sister, as they walk through the countryside in hope or reaching their destination---grandmother's house.

Don't expect lots of action or a fast pace. But expect having feelings of sympathy, hope, pain, while watching.
