Keane Movie Review 2004

Unflinching, unsettling, and intense portrait of grief, and one man's struggle to regain his sanity. William Keane (Lewis), a wanders an NYC bus terminal, searching for his daughter, who may or may not have disappeared from there a year earlier while in his care. He struggles to hold himself together to continue his search when he meets, and helps, a fellow lost soul, Lynn (Ryan), who trusts him enough to ask him to watch her seven year old daughter Kira. Lewis's performance more than stands up to the constant scrutiny director/writer keeps on his character, as the tension of his inner struggle with himself mounts.
