      Wonderful piece of art. Although it has the cloak of a detective and a spy, it is a masterpiece that directly points to the heart. Some unprovoked forgery creates suspicion among people. A group of spies contributed to the country and also created the world's strife. I don't know if they are maintaining the civilization of the world, or are they destroying the peace and tranquility of the world. An ordinary woman who accidentally broke in, deconstructed this hypocritical and absurd "national...

      Fay pales beside Henry

      I love "Henry Fool". That makes me perhaps a harsher critic of this film than my long-time fascination with Hal Hartley calls for.

      Henry and Simon are such cherished US-fostered house plants, wackily adorable---even admirable--- in a way that is only plausible at home, would understandably wither away from American soil. A comedy has to be somewhat plausible to be funny; who would have believed that Henry's picaresque anti-hero would find any sort of creditable serious acceptance in...

      The world is too complicated to understand. A few minutes after the opening, I found out that this is not a "Hollywood blockbuster", but a very wonderful literary film~ Spies from all over the world gathered together to find 7 confessions, and came to the forty-two chapters. ....

    Fay, a single mother, fears her 14-year-old son will become like his father Henry, who has been missing for seven years. Phil's brother Simon was also jailed for ten years for helping Henry escape. Now that Simon is alone in prison, he has enough time to reflect on his life, the days when he was with Henry. After thinking about it carefully, Simon began to suspect that perhaps Henry's heart was not what he appeared to be on the...
