Adam’s distortion of his memories of his parents is sickening, which is disturbingly portrayed with a misplaced sweetness or, in the case of Adam’s relationship with Harry, humor.

The scene is jovial, lighthearted. Then it hits you like a wrecking ball, going for the tear ducts with the efficacy of a heat-seeking missile...
