Wait for it . . . . Silver Lake IS a rich tapestry! (see the movie!) The movie is an example of restraint in storytelling as exemplified (in spades!) by Mr. Starr who seems uniquely qualified in this role. The story is beautiful visually and the score is understated and also quite beautiful and under stated. The child actors steal the show and the ending is both subtle and profound. Bravo in an age of Transformers and Avengers......
