You may like this if you’re in the mood for a character-driven family drama with a 1960s setting and uneasy humor, somewhat in the vein of The Yellow Handkerchief; Not for you if you want a fast-moving or tightly plotted story.

Pros: strong performances; interesting family tensions; drama with humor | Cons: slow pace; uneven execution; thin story
