Review of Grace Is Gone (2007) by Cecily B — 21 Apr 2010
I say again, John Cusack will win an Oscar for Best Actor. His time is coming. A very understated performance here, but he really is good. One of my problems with this movie is that the grieving process has suffered a Hollywood make-over.
For any of you who've lost a spouse or a parent, especially in such an unexpected manner, is the grieving process ever this easy? In fact, does it ever end? What this movie does very well is show us a loving relationship between a father and his two daughters.
It's often more likely that we see father-son or mother-daughter bonding. And I give this one big points for Clint Eastwood's soundtrack. There is some very good music in and behind the action.
