One of those movies that hinges on a single plot revelation. A guy did something shameful when he was young, lives most of his life as a hermit, then attempts to come clean all at once to a bunch of people who probably don’t care. The movie was well done, but after the “big reveal”, I was thinking… really? That’s all he did? I mean… people have done much worse. For all that, I think the movie could have been a half-hour shorter.
