Very moving but a bit slow...

The acting was amazing and I was very moved by the story, but I felt it took a while to get going. I watch a lot of foreign and independent films, so I'm not someone who needs a lot of action in a story to keep me interested, so it's not that. Maybe it just wasn't my cup of tea or I just wasn't in the mood for slow last night. I just finished watching a DVD at home of a movie called "Until Human Voices Wake Us," which also had Helena Bonham Carter and Guy Pearce, but it was made in 1993. The story is also slow, but it's slow in the way of dreams and memories and it felt more poignant to me. Probably just a thematic preference versus a judgment call on the quality of either movie. Either way, great actors.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
