St. Vincent

[Tonker]

Nice movie.  Understated, moving, funny and with note-perfect performances from everybody involved - not least the kid.  It's a simple enough story but there are enough twists and turns to keep it interesting without being overblown.  Irregardless of the fact that I'm a soppy old bastard these days, it brought a lump to my throat definitely a few times, without ever quite getting too schmaltzy.  Murray, as ever, makes a very good performance look completely effortless.

Absolutely worth an hour and a half of your time.  I really enjoyed it.
