Very Touching Film!, 18 February 2002
8/10
Author: films42 from Chicago, IL

Like the series OZ at its very best, this is a film about the deep humanity of people trapped by the combination of temperament & circumstance. Virgil struggles heroically against the forces dragging him down, & you can't help rooting for him no matter how slim his chances are. Few of "us" (the constituency of IMDb) are losers, but most of us probably know people who are. It's important to remember how thin the line can be between success & failure, how hard it is to keep trying when the deck looks stacked against you.

Virgil's story is grim and gritty, but Maggio & Jordan make him a man who touches our hearts. Virgil, wherever you are, may the Force be with you! We'll both be sending good thoughts your way on 3/23/02 (the night the Independent Spirit Awards are announced).
