Laugh-out-loud funny, but also thought-provoking one of the most original movies. It is a story about lonely man who is afraid of being touched and how he is trying to live in small-town-community. An Oscar nomination for screen play and Golden Globe nomination for Ryan Gosling as Lars. Gosling brings out the innocence of Lars succinctly. Great acting performance and original plot that's what makes this movie so unusual. The love shown for Lars as he dealt with his affliction, and his growth into a normal relationship. It is a tender movie that has a great impact.
