Ben needs to continue directing and leave the acting to his brother Casey. The direction in this movie is tight and interesting. Clearly, there’s a lot of potential for growth, but Ben proves to be gifted behind the camera. The visually adoring portrayal of Dorchester is full of character. Casey Affleck’s performance, though completely different from his turn in The Assassination of Jesse James…, was just as inspired. A great movie.
