COLOUR                   RUNNING TIME: 100 MINS.

REVIEW: Robert De Niro, Paul Dano and Julianne Moore give powerhouse performances in this compelling exploitation of the unbreakable yet fragile bonds between parent and child. Nick Flynn (Paul Dano) is a young writer seeking to define himself. His father Jonathan (De Niro), however, scrapes through life on his own terms and has not seen his son in 18 years. Taking a job at a homeless shelter, Nick finds purpose in own life and work until one night Jonathan arrives seeking a bed. To give the two of them a shot at a real future, Nick wrestles with the notion of reaching out to his dad in the undeniably powerful adaptation of Nick Flynn’s award-winning memoir Another Bulls-hit Night In Suck City.
