10 jun 2011 · Communication, time, space and memory all resolutely define Mike Mills ... COPYRIGHT 2011. POPCORNREEL.COM. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. Follow ...
Ewan McGregor plays Oliver, a man trying to understand his father Hal and bond with him in whatever time they have left. Oliver, a graphic artist suffering from depression, is a heterosexual trying to get untracked in a relationship with Anna (Mélanie Laurent), who has issues of her own. Each of these characters struggles with expression and communication, and Mr. Mills's screenplay presents these adversities in a distinct literal and visual language, whether via subtitles, graffiti or written messages. We are treated to flashbacks that shuttle between the 1950s, 1980s and the present day.
