Bottom Line: Set during a time of prohibition and the depression, this movie does a good job at conveying it. And Tom Hanks plays a believable dad set in those times.
A Synopsis: 1 hr 57 min. As I said, this film is in the depression era, so do not expect an action packed thriller. The movie is well done for what they wanted to accomplish for this time era. So if you do not like "depression-esque" movies, this may not be for you. The story is interesting and has a necessary unfortunate turn of events, which is a bit sad when considering the relationships of the characters. A job well done by Tom Hanks, Paul Newman, and Stanley Tucci (also Daniel Craig and Jude Law).
