Review of The Road (2009) by Jeffl — 11 Dec 2009
Doesn't stray far from the book and most notably maintains the sparse dialogue that is simple yet very powerful in its actual meaning for the characters. The story hinges on the relationship of father and son and has some really great moments where the roles you may expect are actually switched, providing an interesting insight into the destruction and growth of their respective minds.
Otherwise, the movie is appropriately drab. But in that, the brief emergence of fainter colors within the characters and their situation reveal the simpler aspects of what it may be like to live during such a horrible time.
