For the first half, I struggled with the deliberate pacing and had difficulty keeping this large cast of characters straight. But the slow accumulation of character detail really pays off in the second half, with a string of revelations that are as emotionally piercing as they are surprising. The performances, a bit dull in the beginning, also grow into much more interesting, psychologically detailed portraits of this poor, too-large family.
