Summary: 5 Stars
A Very Serious Person
This is a film thats very seldom thought about, much less made in this country! The quanity and depth, which the story line explores the characters, is nothing short of inspirational! The director has seen to it that the audience is feted to a feast of glimpses in the maturation of not only the young kid but also the primary care giver! Just a true delight to observe such a cinemagraphic brilliance! This film has to be added to your Collection, if not, just for the characterizations!! THE EVOLUTION OF SEXUAL IDENITY!!!
Summary of A Very Serious Person
A touching tale of evolving sexual identity and self-discovery that feels both familiar and utterly original. Precocious teen Gil loves vacations with his beloved grandma Mrs. A (Emmy winner Polly Bergen Commander in Chief). Mrs. A is raising the boy whose parents are deceased.But this year s summer is different. Grandma s health is failing and she requires a live-in caregiver. When Danish male nurse Jan (Charles Busch) arrives on the scene Gil doesn t know how to react to the business-like nurse. Likewise Jan isn t interested in Gil he is totally focused on his new patient.Although Gil and housekeeper Betty (Dana Ivey) are certain that Grandma will dislike Jan as much as they do Jan suits Mrs. A perfectly cooking her healthy foods and soothing her in a way no previous nurse has been able to do.And even though Jan has no interest in kids he eventually finds himself drawn to Gil and concerned about what will happen to the boy when his Grandmother passes away. Jan himself is surprised by this as he is both a bachelor and a gay man. In fact he is really concerned about Gil s somewhat flamboyant developing personality certain that this will cause havoc as he gets older.System Requirements:Run Time: 96 minutes Genre: DRAMA UPC: 754703762870Comedy DVD Video
