POVZETEK

This film about grief touches the heart and leaves a deep and lasting impression. Tom Wilkinson and Golden Globe winner Sissy Spacek are both excellent as the parents swamped by moral and psychological trauma after the murder of their son. Trapped in a claustrophobic community, they live in close proximity to their child's killer - and the woman whose involvement with their son indirectly led to his death - and their intense grief and outrage pushes them to breaking point. The movie's measured pace and elegance of observation are testaments to the astounding confidence of actor/director Todd Field, whose handling of the delicately balanced material makes his feature debut something of a rare find. In the Bedroom doesn't make for easy viewing, but it is a profound and rewarding experience.
