there is very little in this movie that doesn't scream LOOK AT ME OSCAR, but when the performances are this good (Swank just dives into the role with ferocity, and Rockwell is as amazing as he's ever been. Please tell me he'll finally get the acting nod he deserves with this one) it really doesn't matter. The story is dealt with in a strong-hearted manner that avoids pathos where it can, at least by Hollywood standards. And at the very least this movie reminds us why we need more Juliette Lewis in our lives.***
