What a surprising and unexpectedly thoughtful venture into the heady realms of psychological drama this is, found belatedly on You Tube. Particularly impressive is the performance of Michael Higgins, an actor I did not know who I learned had a long career mostly in supporting roles. Ignore the reviewer who described the film as "empty" and that "not much happens" until the last bit. On the contrary, the film builds tension steadily and methodically. One anticipates this troubled young man is headed for a flip out in the final reel, but even this is handled with sensitivity, if graphically in a single shot. Higgins was singled out by a professional reviewer as providing the only work of substance in the the cast but Lois Holmes (and her screen daughters) is likewise excellent as Florence who is fighting something of a losing battle to keep the peace.
