Plummer, who won an Oscar for this, is that rare actor lucky enough to manage half a century of undiminished dash and elan on screen.

Wwhile there's plenty of melancholia, there is also sweet wonder and celebration in writer-director Mike Mills' semiautobiographical tale of a straight son coming to terms with his own love's possibilities after his father comes out of the closet.

"Beginners" is a delightful film - gentle, playful, creative and ultimately happy - though it's a tricky journey.

Beginners, beyond its pervasive atmosphere of melancholy and loss, suffers from a little self-indulgence. It's your typical indie drama.

Mike Mills treats love and loss with a disarming tenderness and a refusal of sentimentality that make Beginners, his second feature, something of an anomaly among male identity flicks. What a finely wrought, wryly funny, transcendently sad movie this is.

Mills needs to look up from the lint that's collected in his navel.

"Beginners" is warm and revealing and bittersweet, if a trifle all over the place stylistically and thematically.

It understands death better than it understands life; it understands memories more than it understands what to learn from them.

A strange and beautiful film.

Excruciatingly faux-naïve and sentimental...

The film is not about a straight man's struggle to understand how his father is gay; it's about learning that happiness is always possible if you're brave enough to keep your heart open.

"Beginners" ultimately becomes so deeply resonant that you should pack some Kleenexes just in case.
