La vita a modo mio (1994)
Il sessantenne muratore Sully è sempre stato uno "spirito libero". Ha divorziato quando il suo unico figlio aveva un anno, ha continuato a vivere nella sua cittadina, è in lite col suo datore di lavoro, ma perde la causa. Il ritorno del figlio, in crisi matrimoniale, avvicina Sully a lui e ai nipotini, gli ridà quel senso della famiglia che non aveva mai avuto prima. Un film di attori (tutti eccellenti), che il regista ("Kramer contro Kramer") guida con mano sapiente. Un film di succose, sapide atmosfere colte con magistrale sensibilità. Un film come se ne facevano una volta: ottimamente, golosamente "anacronistico".
