Brilliant screenplay from Field and novelist Tom Perrotta with an authory narration (spoken by Will Lyman), concerns growing relationship between married Kate Winslet and married Patrick Wilson, as well as a sex offender Jackie Earle Haley and a former cop Noah Emmerich - great cast with Winslet and Haley Oscar nominated. Also with Jennifer Connelly, Gregg Edelman, Phyllis Somerville, Jane Adams, Mary McCann (critical one from playground).
Nicely sprinkled with bits of Thomas Newman. Photographed by someone called Antonio Calvache and edited by Leo Trombetta.
The climax it reaches is really exceptional. It was well overdue.
Field made In The Bedroom with Tom Wilkinson and Sissy Spacek, and more recently Tar with Cate Blanchett.

And there's a credit for 'Oddly familiar man' - Leon Vitali!
