Review of Lars and the Real Girl (2007) by Manohla Dargis for The New York Times — 20 Aug 2017
It’s part comedy, part tragedy and 100 percent pure calculation, designed to wring fat tears and coax big laughs and leave us drying our damp, smiling faces as we savor the touching vision of American magnanimity.
It holds a flattering mirror up to us that erases every distortion.
