This is one quiet French movie. You will not believe how long a scene can go without a word, but Olivier Gourmet's acting is so flawless and his introspective expressions so rich that you will not miss those words. His acting will show you that some event in his past shattered every bone in his soul. He is bitter and he is lost.
In The Son, Olivier teaches carpentry to young men just released from juvenile correction centers. He has some serious issues with a new apprentice, played by Morgan Marinne.
No gay content though :-(
Go rent this movie right now.
