- Excerpt: Directed and acted with enough sensitivity to stir our sympathies, although we’re not sure we want to go wherever this bleak story might be heading

- Excerpt: Detachment is a movie about the problems facing our schools and the difficulties facing students in the modern world that is not unlike the teenagers at the heart of its drama: it is sometimes overemotional and lacking in self-control, but it is well-meaning. Executive producer Adrien Brody leads an amazing ensemble cast, playing a substitute teacher who lives a rootless, brooding existence, and who finds some kind of grounding via his young charges.
