This has been a very long time since Nicolas Cage gave us a good feature ; since LORD OF WAR and, some years before: LEAVING LAS VEGAS. Besides these two features, he only made garbage stuff. He deserves much better that these craps he was involved in.
I still can't explain why he made such choices, it can't be only for the dol.
Anyway this film is exactly what I expected from him. He should have made this sort of character since many years now. Why has he waited so long?
We Watch here a deep study of the rural countryside of the deep America. Great performances help to enhance this amazing story of a friendship between an ex con and a Young man in his teens. Some poignant sequences for a dark tale, whilst not being depressing.
A true gem.
