Just seen The Descendants, excellent cinematography of gorgeous filming locations. Well acted by a good looking cast. Touching story with a subtle twist. It's the overall subtlety throughout the film that makes it so engaging. Requires the right mood and some patience. I would say top ten of 2011 for sure.
