For all its miseries, Cutie and the Boxer - interweaving archive footage with contemporary discontents - ends up arguing strongly for the power of love.

A visually ravishing and incredibly intimate portrait that speaks on the significance of long term relationships, the meaning of art in relation to a career, and the impact of alcoholism on families with gravity and humor in equal measure.
