The listing, "Tim" DVD has ended.
"Tim" is a wonderful Australian story of the relationship between a very handsome, though mentally and emotionally challenged, young man and an attractive transplanted American older woman. The innocence of it is what is so powerful! Mel is absolutely believable as the over-protected adult son of two working class parents and jealous older sister. When he meets Mary (Piper Laurie) his world is changed in an instant as he goes about doing yard work at her elaborate home. What develops between them is rarely seen in films today, a slow and progressively blossoming relationship. I would have liked to have seen more of the relationship between Tim and his sister, the affection between the parents and Tim, and Tim's unraveling bond with his dad, but the movie is top notch nonetheless. The story has some very sad moments, and the lighting is terrible in some areas of the movie. But with Tim's sweetness of spirit and brevity of wardrobe, he is utterly irresistable! DVD is used but in great condition. I will ship to Listia verified addresses only! No international shipping, I'm sorry, but free shipping in the US.
