- Citazioni
Beagle: So what's wrong with you anyway?
Georgia: I have Frederick's Ataxia. It's a neuromuscular disease.
Beagle: Is that why you talk kind of like you're drunk?
Georgia: I do?
Beagle: I mean, um, you, it, just slurred a little...
Georgia: No, I get it all the time
Beagle: I just didn't know. I didn't know anything about it. I didn't mean to offend you
Georgia: No, you didn't. It's a genetic disorder of some kind.
Beagle: Are you gonna get better?
Georgia: No, this is pretty much as good as it's gonna get until my heart gives out. I don't know when that's going to be.

There are so many points in this movie where a less steady hand might have foundered the effort, either by overplaying the sentiment card, or by trying to hard to push the tragic undertones, but the film finds an immaculate balance, that golden middle-of-the-road equilibrium that just gets rarer the more time goes by. The characters are so genuine, their stories so real, that the film exacts an impact that is no less raw, and no less memorable, than the trials and tribulations of families we know in life.
The first scene offers a perfect illustration of everything that's right with the movie: Beagle and Easy sit across from each other at the breakfast table, Easy contemplating such bold measures as changing his breakfast cereal, Beagle listening, responding in monosyllables, almost without thinking, and from this one tiny encounter we glean the whole spectrum of what their relationship has become perfunctory, habitual, and void of energy.
With writing this precise, and with performances so nuanced and natural that all of Hollywood's clichés are swept under the carpet without so much as a whimper, the stage is set for perfection.
Which is what this movie is perfection.
