the visitor

Although I consider myself a rather informed American citizen, this film opened up my eyes to a side of American society to which I had never been previously exposed. Immigration is a very spirited discussion, and here I saw a whole different perspective on this subject.
 The structure and strategy of the script allowed all audience members to be able to feel as though this film related to them, and the ambiguous ending has left the subject open for further personal, mental perusal. And the title is also very much up for interpretation in regards to the many levels of interpretation regarding who is actually visiting.
