10/10
The Best Film of 2007
20 May 2007
Man in The Chair is a 10 out of 10. Christopher Plummer delivers a leading Oscar worthy performance - filled with soul, depth and abundant range. A film that deals as much about respecting elders as it does about respecting the making of films and never forgetting those who help you at the start. Subjects that are often overlooked and "thrown away" or simply not interesting to younger audiences. This is a beautiful 9 year journey of a film. Michael Schroeder wrote and directed this gem from the heart, infusing uncovered social issues with intricate feelings of mentorship. This is simply put, the best film I have seen this year! The cast and crew deliver and the cinematography is uniquely soulful. And a (supporting) Oscar worthy performance by M. Emmet Walsh. WOW!
