So it's slow
"And beautifully observed, well acted and atmospheric. It tells a simple story, believably, to a beautiful soundtrack. A thoroughly enjoyable film..."
💡 Did You Know?
"The kindness of strangers" is a quote from the Tennessee Williams play "A Streetcar Named Desire". Blanche Dubois, the heroine of sorts of the play, says, "I have always depended on the kindness of strangers," hinting at her past as a prostitute. The play was turned into a movie directed by Elia Kazan, the grandfather of Zoe Kazan, who plays Clara in this movie.
