Hearts in Atlantis

Though Anthony Hopkins is listed as the star here, the honor really goes to Anton Yelchin and Mika Boorem who both worked together in ALONG CAME A SPIDER. William Goldman does a superb job of adapting this Stephen King short story which is yet another where he laments the loss of childhood. Hopkins delivers his most low key performance to date and is in beautiful form here. The film almost could have done without the supernatural elements as the key themes can stand on their own. With nice work from David Morse and Hope Davis, HEARTS IN ATLANTIS is one to add to your "must see" list.......and keep a close eye on Yelchin...we'll be seeing him soon as Checkov in the new STAR TREK.
