|
Manuel Jordan (Billy Bob Thornton) is unexpectedly released from prison after having been incarcerated for two decades for murder, which he solemnly regrets committing. Free and moving Manuel stops frequently to contemplate his current actions and choices as he reflects on his juvenile mistake that he committed in a small convenient store some twenty years ago. By choice, based on repent, he ends up in the neighborhood where he committed the murder and by chance he ends up getting a small job as a janitor in a half-way home. Through his job and leisure time he does everything he can do in order to repent for his past crime. Manuel seeks up the sister (Holly Hunter) of the young adult that he killed, since he wants to display his regret of his crime. Levity is a film that gives the audience a chance to reflect on daily decisions and actions as we affect others continuously. Manuel's pondering is displayed with thoughtful cinematography and supported through a well written script, which leaves the audience with a decent cinematic experience. |
