A lovingly crafted, beautifully acted, superbly shot work of art. While the story line runs to fairly simple (which will make some people shrink from it) it is wonderfully brought to life with vivacity by a great cast all acting at the top of their games. That alone keeps it from being too saccharine. We loved the serene sense of acceptance without surrender that the occupants of the home show throughout. It was a joy to watch and would watch it again. Highly recommended.........to non-cynics
