One hint, 6 chances, and a new movie to guess every day
The lives of two lovelorn spouses from separate marriages, a registered sex offender, and a disgraced ex-police officer intersect as they struggle to resist their vulnerabilities and temptations in suburban Massachusetts.
"Movies about love triangles abound. However, few have the poetic sensitivity of 'Little Children', a film by Todd Field ('In the Bedroom'). Starring Patrick Wilson and a passionate Kate Winslet, the feature, more than talking about extramarital relationships, addresses the effects of parallel lives on the everyday life of those who are tired of the same old and the limitations of their routines. The transformation of the character played by Winslet (from 'Titanic') is palpable and visible throughout the more than two hours of projection - which pass quickly, it is worth noting. A movie to think about the possibilities of life, the small daily escapes and, mainly, the limits that routine ends up imposing on the transformation of each one."
