What Nobody's Fool Is About
In a small town a builder in his sixties who left his family years ago lives on casual work and petty lawsuits. When his son comes back with his grandchildren he has to face it. The film builds no great scene of reconciliation; the narrative shows plainly that he has no intention of changing and leaves repair to small, awkward gestures. The town itself is used like a character. Robert Benton directed. Paul Newman stars, with Jessica Tandy in one of her last roles, adapted from Richard Russo's novel. Who it's for: those who like calm American drama built on character. Who it's not for: viewers wanting incident; the film is daily life across one winter.
