Rare Birds

William Hurt is a masterpiece in recent years that shows the reserve of a gentleman and the vicissitudes of middle age. This time Hurt plays the role of Dave, an aspiring chef who opens a high-end French restaurant on the rarely visited cliffs of Newfoundland. At first, the natural entrance is sparse, but fortunately, he persuades his neighbors to come up with suggestions. Rumors spread that rare seabirds have appeared in the area. In an instant, birdwatchers flock to the restaurant, and Dave's restaurant has become a trendy hotspot. Unexpectedly, bewitching his neighbors is both a blessing and a curse. Not only does his aunt (played by Molly Parker of "Private Red Light District") who comes to work in the restaurant push Dave into the mist of love, but the white powder he secretly hides also attracts heroes from all walks of life to look at the restaurant... Director Storagnason has been hailed as the new hope of Canadian movies, and he has made this black comedy witty and refined, with a lot of good lines. The three protagonists, one cold, one hot and one delicate, have strong chemistry, and their interpretation of male friendship and year-end romance is also full of emotion.
