Review of Late Spring (2014) by Chris H — 02 Apr 2011
Its heart and heartbreak creep up on you unsuspectingly. What starts out feeling like it will be a charming but forgettable film grows to an immensely touching conclusion. Enchanting performances are bound together with intimate direction and music. A story about a sweet and beautiful daughter who would rather spend her life looking after her father than be married is refreshingly authentic without a hint of corniness or chauvinism.
The emotion builds almost flawlessly, culminating in a brilliantly heart-wrenching ending that is, in some sense, a twist, and one that bears that label exceedingly better than most.
