Academy Award-winner and Golden Globe-nominee William Hurt (Syriana, The Village) stars in this touching story about a lonely, unmarried mail clerk who must prove that he is emotionally qualified to love and nurture a troubled young boy before he is allowed to adopt him. His struggle to win the boy over demonstrates that simply by being present and caring, he is a better parent than the boy's own absent father, who was sent to prison not long after the boy's mother died. Also starring Academy Award-nominee and Golden Globe-winner John Hurt (Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, The Skeleton Key), and directed by Academy Award-winner Chris Menges (The Mission, The Killing Fields). The Hollywood Reporter calls this an entirely first-rate drama... a quietly powerful film, and The Los Angeles Times says it is Splendid. Perfect. Richly realized.
