1. • • Estranged from his family, a retired lawyer grows close to his new neighbors until catastrophe pulls them apart in Gianni Amelio’s beautifully shot yet strangely uncompelling drama Tenderness. This study of loneliness, and the inability to love or even connect with family members, covers a lot of well-trodden ground, and not so convincingly.

   Is tenderness a good book?

   • Cormier himself called Tenderness a tough book written in "a minor key" and perhaps Polson was inspired by the description. But if so, he doesn't come close. May 1, 2009 | Rating: 2.5/5 | Full Review… It does have a few plot contrivances, but the tension is skilfully built and the cast is uniformly excellent.
