It is wonderful. Always zagging when you expect it to zig, exceptional performances, uses long shots to capture physical performances. Technically thoughtful filmmaking. Jerks tears without straining or leaning into convention. It's acutely insightful about taking care of each other.
Don't use it as a guide to parenting. It makes the case for precocious children learning to determine their parenting. Kids need parents not facilitators.
It's a fantastic film. The acting is superb and it is VERY well written and directed. As is so often the case, however, the dialogue written for the child is a bit spurious. I very highly recommend it, Stan.
