I have mixed feelings about this. The acting was very good by most, especially the two daughters, but Ruffalo's character—a bi-polar man—was annoying to me. Also annoying was the brief reference on race—that made no sense at all considering this was an interracial family living in Boston in the 1970s.
Apart from that, it was a good film about some of the ups and downs some people experience when a member of the family is bi-polar.
