I just saw this movie. I would recommend seeing at least once. It's a heartfelt story of trials, persecution, poor judgemnt, prejudice, love, anger, etc... .
Not an overly complicated story but very enjoyable.
Anthony Hopkins plays a kind hearted psychic on the lamb from the federal government in the late 50s. But the protagonist is a young boy and his journey of discovery aided by the elderly sage/psychic. Hopkins character doesn't flex his pyschic muscle very often but often enough to keep it interesting in that aspect.
No oscars in this one but it is enjoyable to watch.
