I started with the word uncanny and realized – its not uncanny, it unlikely
Its unlikely bordering on what is possibly considered "inappropriate" by misguided social police; such is the relationship between the protagonists. The film beautifully captures something so surreal like, the further away one is from conventional closeness/togetherness the closer one is to relationships that are broad, ambiguous and endearing..
Half Nelson is a beautifully told story of a moment in time.. A teacher who is truly on a beaten path to nowhere and a student about to embark on a long winding road to regret, share a bond they both going to remember in the years to come.
The film touches on an education in history without the density of dates and facts but the introspection of events, not necessarily appreciated by the school regulators but definitely for kept the kids engaged.
Both Ryan Gosling and Shareeka Epps make it almost palpable and bring this space between alive.
The film is certainly worth a watch, I would place in the category of films one enjoys in the privacy of self..
