This is filmmaking. True filmmaking. Not meaningless mumbo-jumbo Hollywood is known for producing. This film is subtle, tender and insanely moving. I can relate to this, not because I lived during those years; I did not. But because I feel like my family is just as broken in pieces and wrapped in silence and guilt as the ones in "The Ice Storm". Director Ang Lee really grabs our soul with a style that truly depicts the mid-70s malaise. I'll need to see it again and again to fully grasp each scene but I am already enchanted. A film nearly flawless in every area, from the actors to the mystical music. See it.
