First of all this is true - just that makes this worth watching . When you finish or before you start read the article by Teague- it's amazingly well written , heartfelt and heartbreaking.
I cannot tell you how powerful the story itself is, true love and selflessness , family is who we are born with but also who we choose . I love that the film presented Danes choice as something totally unreasonable to most people , yet to him it was the right thing and he was actually happy to do it because of his love . His relationship with the kids was a major highlight as well.
The execution could have been better , I didn't like the timeline jumping , I wasn't a huge fan of how the relationship was presented between all of them - this should have felt more powerful and more connected . The timeline made things confusing and lost some of the power of things unfolding in order .
Overall well acted, worth the watch and restores your faith in humanity .
