Highly unusual drama - with black comedy elements - which allows Duvall to showcase his refined skills.

That the finale ends up being trite is a shame, but the long, gentle jaunt to arrive there is a pleasurable one.

It affords Duvall a terrific role, harking back to his screen debut as one of literature's great loners, Boo Radley.

The ponderous route of the film is livened up by the presence of the deadpan Bill Murray

Quiet character study is stellar but won't appeal to kids.

Sweet and gentle and occasionally makes you crave a catnap.

The creaky foreshadowing is a big problem, and the movie runs in place for most of its second half, though Duvall manages to pull it back on track with his climactic soliloquy, which sobers and silences the carnivalesque funeral party.

This is a film about a man who doesn't speak to the world for 40 years, and once it comes time, the movie won't let him, or itself, shut up.

Basically, it's Hollywood slush dressed up as American Gothic.

It contains yet another pitch-perfect performance by Robert Duvall, who has given more great performances over the age of 60 than any actor, probably ever.

The mighty Robert Duvall delivers an astounding turn as a man whose soul is burdened by the weight of regret in Get Low.

Eccentric and ultimately touching.
