    Review by Aaron King ★★★★

    This movie is up there with one of the best flashback movies that I have seen and instead of them being different from what everybody else has said, they describe this character who has died and by the end of it we see a whole character arc for him because he goes from being a likeable person to a terrible person to a person that you kind of feel sorry for since he changed who he was in order to please people and in the end he lost everybody and everything. Norman is a great director.
