A fine effort from the maturing DGG. It's strange to see him working with "name" actors - and maybe a bit sad. On the other hand, it's great that the actors want to work with him.
KB did a find job of acting, but I'm not sure that she was the best person for the part. She's a little too pretty, maybe. And, dare I say it, she doesn't class down that well (even compared to Nicole Kidman). It hurts me to to say that.
The walk in the woods is a nice reference to the short that DGG found (see George Washington - DVD for more) as a film student.
And Nicky Katt. There should be some sort of alert. To all who enter here, beware Nicky Katt resides. I don't trust that guy.
Class-wise, I think that it's important to look at all of DGG's movies before making any conclusions about his feelings about the blue collar. George Washington had a surfeit of promise. This movie is well made, but it's not living up to the original potential.
