Hole

Rabbit Hole (2010)

Based on the play of the same name this low budget drama stars Nicole Kidman and Aaron Eckhart. Eight months after the accident that killed him a married couple are trying to come to terms with the death of their four year old child.

This is a well made film that manages to sensitively deal with a subject that could easily stray into melodrama. There are some good performances from the cast, especially Kidman but it is hard to find anything revolutionary or new that the film adds to the topic. In the end the message is everyone has to deal with grief in their own way which while true is not a new idea.

3/5
