Review of Mr. Church (2016) by Eric W — 21 Nov 2016
People say that it is an improbable, no, an impossible tale. As a person who has experienced being broken--I say it is a possible tale. People inject color-based "culture" on things, yet broken people have no color. To belong, really belong somewhere, is precious. To be needed; not used, but needed--is an improbable feeling. To view the memories through a lens of earnest honesty with the seams of scars blurring the images somewhat is rare, beautiful, powerful and painful. The movie is intimate. I don't understand why the critics couldn't watch and feel this movie.
Eddie Murphy showed that he could go head to head with the subtlety of a "Remains Of The Day" A. Hopkins performance.
