An invitation to openmindedness
Added 9/23/2008
A father who have never enjoyed life without working, has given everything he needed to his son his whole life long. This caused the son to grow up with neither a reason nor a motivation to find working as much interesting.
When the father realizes it, can no longer live with this reality, and start a two year wandering in order to find himself.
He will be back with a new knowledge: We can love someone also without being proud of them.
He will have acquired some more - a new life philosophy: the ability to relax, and enjoy life being totally financially supported by his son. This, in turn, will then have discovered the pleasure of working, and for a completely different reason: as a way to pay back life for what life had given to him in the first place. A much "nobler" concept of working.
The man's wife will also have found back the joy of working, and for her it will mean making things.
A nice story which leads even the inattentive spectator to realize that there are different values than the ordinary ones, for most aspects of life, even those that are apparently most stable and univocal.

Entertaining Movie
Added 9/19/2008
This was an entertaining movie. The twists and turns are sometimes hard to follow but the movie has a satifying ending. The down side of the film would be the character of the son. I would have liked to see this role be a little stronger. Pop the corn and cozy up to the television for a comfortable time.
