The movie starts off with characters like pieces of a puzzle
but it's not like forcefully scattered like Chris Nolan's or Guy Richie's movies. As the movie progresses, it slowly falls into place.
At the beginning of the movie:
Toddler snuggles into her mother's bed to sleep and asks where's daddy. Mom says daddy's running and the kid sort of asks - what's daddy running from.
The last movie of Paul Giamatti I saw was Cold Souls where his soul was sucked and made into an object. That one was a thought-provoking movie!
Here in this movie, he's having a trouble making ends meet, so he is full-time lawyer and also coaches a wrestling team of kids. He decides to take care of a senile old man for some extra income. Then a teenager appears at the porch of the old man's house and he turns out to be his grandson. This is where the movie really gets warmer.
But this reticent and unassuming kid is a wrestling prodigy.
The characters are so beautifully etched and realistic. Through out the movie, I didn't for a single scene feel indifferent to their roles.
