Grace is also what defines Mr. Bahrani's filmmaking. I can't think of anything else to call the quality of exquisite attention, wry humor and wide-awake intelligence that informs every frame of this almost perfect film.

Wherever you live, when this film opens, it will be the best film in town.
Its style is spare, rigorous, almost anti-dramatic, but it deals thoughtfully with some of the most complex elements of the human equation.
It is both funny and sad, placid and provocative and, above all, hopeful and despairing.
The result is a playful, elusive movie that isn't so much heartwarming as soul-cleansing.
The acting's so true, and Bahrani's so observant, you find yourself caring about everyone onscreen.
Utterly engrossing dual-character study, unfolding with a serene disregard for indie quirkiness, Goodbye Solo radiates authenticity.
