Take Shelter (Jeff Nichols)

Engrossing film that brings the audience inside the experience of Curtis--an everyday working man, husband, and father--and his encroaching schizophrenia. Make that "experiences," for the film is exceptionally good with its sympathetic portrayal of friends and family as they are pulled into and resist Curtis' delusions and paranoia in rural Ohio. Much more suspenseful that I would have expected. Excellent performances by Jessica Chastain and Michael Shannon. Highly recommend.
