Description
 
Rebecca Miller's absorbing, disquieting character study etches the complex relationship between Jack, a '60s-styled back-to-the-land idealist (exceptionally played by Daniel Day-Lewis), and his impressionable teen daughter Rose (the no-less remarkable Camilla Belle). When illness, housing developers, and the creeping presence of incestuous feelings begin to threaten their island idyll, Jack and Rose are forced to confront the difficult realities of their relationship and their increasingly untenable way of life. "As a statement about the death rattle of '60s counterculture it's both thoughtful and affecting, and Daniel Day-Lewis is mesmerizing." (Jonathan Rosenbaum)
