A young man dies while attempting to walk the Way of St. James, a pilgrimage of hundreds of miles in the Pyrenees. When his father arrives to claim his body, he unexpectedly decides to join an eclectic group of fellow travelers and complete his son’s journey, quietly discovering his own along the way. US/Spain, 2010, 123 minutes, rated PG-13

“The beauty of the movie, in fact, is that Mr. Estevez does not make explicit what any of them find, beyond friendship. He lets these four fine actors convey that true personal transformations are not announced with fanfare, but happen internally.” – Neil Genzlinger, The New York Times

“Funny, moving, hip and transcendent all at the same time, The Way is both deeply thoughtful and enormous fun to watch.” – Ann Hornaday, Washington Post

“Estevez keeps his touch light, with a minimum of pedantry. The Way is really a gift from this son to his father. Sheen, gradually revealing a man painfully getting reacquainted with long buried feelings, gives the film its bruised heart.” – Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
