Review of The Lunchbox (2013) by Lyn — 06 Jul 2014
I recently watched the last season of 'In Treatment" -- in which one of Gabriel Byrne's tormented patients in therapy is played by Irrfan Khan -- and was struck again by his riveting presence in this film.
He is mournful, wry, intelligent, dark, hopeless, hopeful, all conveyed with such subtlety. The touching interactions between his character and the lovely woman who prepares his mistakenly delivered food have a "You've Got Mail" (or "The Shop Around the Corner") quality.
Yet they might not lead where you expect.
