Great news, Tino. I really loved the novel, and have been cautiously following the film. Fidelity is something I hoped for on this one. Can't wait to see it!

The first book that ever brought tears to my eyes was The Road. My son had just turned a year old when I read it and the relationship between father and son was so well done.Originally Posted by Jim_C
I can certainly agree with the real world providing enough depressing material. It's an overwelming book, and not one I plan to read again anytime soon. Having a 9 year old son made the reading experience hit home that much more. I'm planning to see the movie, but I really don't know why, if you know what I mean.
I'm in the same basic position but I assume it's the usual Oscar hopeful platform release and it'll be playing in the suburbs in another week or two.Originally Posted by Eric Peterson
Why is it nearly impossible to see this film? It's going in to it's second week of release and still not playing anywhere in the Chicago suburbs.
I had to see it at an art house theater about 30 minutes from home. I'm sure it will open wider.Originally Posted by Eric Peterson
I hope you're right. It's just strange that they don't list the film as being "Limited" anywhere.

Which is why I can't see this. Just too depressing as a father.Originally Posted by Jim_C
