Beauty in its consistent, washed-out blues and silvers, grace in its understated, intense male performances and energy in its unyielding commitment to tone and tension.

What makes it special is the inner turmoil caused by living a lie. If everyone you know and everything you do for 10 years indicates you are one kind of person, and you know you are another, how do you live with that?
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

A beautifully crafted, exciting story that keeps on surprising you to the very end.

This is what movies are supposed to feel like -- provocative, exciting, chilling, complex and fully engaging.
