A quirky film, fun to watch because it captures dark smalltown Pacific Northwest. The town of Fingerbone is spawn of Sandpoint, ID, with its longbridge over the lake.

Haunting and one-of-a-kind, with a knockout Lahti performance.

This charming film is a hidden 80's gem that never ages. It's a bold and beautiful story about a family. First off, all the major characters are women, second the relationship between the two young sisters is touching and believable, Third, the film doesn't shy away from being painful and awkward. It's funny, highly original and the performances are pitch-perfect in an offbeat manner. Best of all, the film never judges the characters, Instead, it celebrates the individual. Be true to who you are. Even if it means alienating some of your family. The movie doesn't offer any easy answers, yet by the end, one can tell the characters love one another. Bill Forsyth constantly focuses on moments that are free from cliche and unexpected. It's a story that needs to be told because there is undoubtedly countless people out there who could relate to Sylvie and Ruth.

One of those rare feats: a perfect little film, perfect the way Mozart's Perfect Little Symphony is perfect, and underrated. It should be taught in film studies curricula everywhere.

I had to read the book and watch the film as part of a "Fiction into Film" course I took. It was the only film I honestly felt remained true to the story. It is a quiet but quirky perspective on people we've probably come across in our lives and quickly dismissed as not deserving of our attention.
