Load of rubbish!!

Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

What begins as a feel-good-human-interest story turns into a mystery, then a tragedy, and ultimately an outrage.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
