Sensation of Sight, The

Wonderful photography highlights this slow-paced, somber, arty, poetic 2006 film in which a traumatized English schoolteacher (David Strathairn) is haunted by the tragic death of a high school student in his classroom and tries to escape his life by separating from his worried wife (Ann Cusack) and 9-year-old son (Tony Swingle) and by resigning himself to selling encyclopedias door-to-door in New Hampshire while an unemployed mother (Jane Adams) tries to raise her precocious daughter (Cassidy Hinkle), an angry ex-con (Daniel Gillies) tries to sort out his life and to reconnect with his child, a grief-stricken guitarist (Ian Somerhalder) tries to get over the death of his brother, and a teenager (Elizabeth Waterston) tries to console her widowed dad (Scott Wilson).
