9/12: Enemies, A Love Story is a heartwarming story with a weird twist.

Of the cast, Ron Silver's performance stands out the most despite Anjelica Huston and Lena Olin receiving Oscar nominations. The ingenious story is what keeps it together because I haven't seen a similar kind in another film. There are times the characters are funny.

Also, I like the 40's feel, and it works. Of course, to keep things in perspective, all of the central characters are Holocaust survivors. So, it's difficult to judge Herman's moral values because most likely he's just confused.

All in all, Enemies, A Love Story is a unique movie.
