Review of The Visitor (2008) by Hollyc — 04 Mar 2009
Loved the subtle story and really true-to life characters. From the immigrants, to the professor (Jenkins was brilliant), the mother and the institutional workers---all of it was put together perfectly, to avoid both a ham-fisted hollywood cliche story, or the opposite--an overly PC, agenda indie film.
Well done Jenkins--definitely earned his Oscar nom---and bravo McCarthy---I will definitely keep watching what he does.
