Directed by: Todd Field
I'm not sure I've seen a movie that felt as real or as true to human nature as In the Bedroom. There are aspects of the story that are heartbreaking but the real drama comes as a result of outstanding performances from Tom Wilkinson and Sissy Spacek playing heartbroken parents. The story is simple but the characters are complex and every level of them is portrayed. The subtleties of their performances are what make this film so subtly great. There is nothing in your face about it, even when its up front and direct, it flows with a perfect consistency right into the number 20 spot in the best of the decade debate.
