Helena O Jul 31 Sorry - there's a terrific cast here & good intentions to shine light on a big problem in society...But the film is so dull. It takes forever to get started and once it does, it still never gets its momentum going. See more Cindy F 12/29/2023 Found it boring. The demise of Mr Hammond spread out for over an hour to climax in his daughter giving into his addiction. See more 06/29/2021 The protagonist of this film has spent a number of years being unable to make sense of the world around him and being bothered by background noise. By the end of this film you'll find it hard to believe you've only been going through the same experience for two hours. See more 09/10/2019 A good and thought provoking film although a bit slow See more 10/17/2018 A long film but more than worth watching. Geer is brilliant. This is not a typical Hollywood plotline where there's an arc of development and the hero comes good in the end. The main protagonist does have some realizations and there is some hope at the end but really, it's a slice of life of homeless people. Their days are mundane, frustrating, tedious, lonely, harsh, tragic. That's reality and this film portrays the life of a whole sector of the population the rest of us tent to overlook. See more 08/08/2017 Richard Gere plays against type in a film about a homeless man who has lost all sense of his identity and to an extent refuses to accept his situation for what it is. There is a plot point about a man trying to reconnect with his daughter but this almost plays second fiddle to a film that takes an unsentimental look at life on the streets of New York. It's about the day to day struggle of finding food and shelter but also the loneliness of having nowhere to go and nothing to do with your time. It is a slow film that demands patience and so won't be to everyone's taste but I did enjoy it, especially the way it was filmed. It's almost filmed from the shadows, always at a distance from it's central lead, it makes the performances look a lot more natural plus we also see the indifference to the homeless by everyone else who happened to be walking by during filming.
