Happiness

I just saw this in Toronto and loved it. I saw 12 films and this was in the top two (my other favorite in Toronto was Mongol). This was a beautiful,realistic story that was well acted. I liked the fact that it was not predictable and the story was very moving. All of the characters were very believable and there were no false notes. I do not know what kind of release this will get, but hopefully some art house theaters will show it in the US. If you have the opportunity, it is worth checking out. There is some humor in the story, but for the most part, this is a serious drama about two people battling different illnesses. This is one of those films that will stay with me and I will think about for days.
