Wanted to feel close to my late grandmother and our Irish ancestors, and this film delivered. Beautiful story wrapped in tenderness, mysticism, and nostalgia

The Road 2009
Viggo Mortensen is such a delight to watch, in every film he’s involved in. My favorite characters I’ve seen him play always exude a masterful balance between strength and a quiet gentleness (i.e., zero toxic masculinity). The tenderness between father and son in this movie was a particular joy to experience, especially against such an unsettling and depressing plot and backdrop. Makes me want to rewatch Eastern Promises for more Viggo screen time
