"A wonderful story of an unlikely friendship and personal growth. An absolute classic film sort of a hidden gem. Sean Connery is fantastic!"

"Great movie! Unusual friendships that just work!"
Billie George
"Parts of the film are a bit ham-fisted, but overall it is a good film. I like some Gus Van Sant films: My Own Private Idaho and Elephant are amazing films."
