Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaAuthor Andre Dubus III received more than one hundred offers from movie studios who wanted to make his book into a movie.
- GoofsThe county may have the right to attach property to satisfy a business tax lien, but the process is nothing like in the movie. First, the lien is bought by an investor who is paid interest from repayment of the lien or sale of the property. This usually takes many months or years. If the property is sold, the money remaining after the lien is paid goes to the property owner or estate - it is certainly not kept by the county.
Featured review
House of Sand and Fog... nothing short of brilliance
josephinerenae3's review is very informative without ruining the film, I completely agree.
I believe this film is raw, it shows different perspectives of lives in America: immigration, greed, sacrifice, and more.
This film is acted well through it all. Everyone does a great job, particularly Jennifer Connelly and Ben Kingsley (nothing short of what was expected from both).
This isn't a feel-good film, it's a film about society and human nature, with lessons to be learned.
Enjoy it for what it is, not for what you want it to be.
