Boulevard (2014)
Storyline
Nolan Mack, a soft-spoken bank employee, undoubtedly loves his wife Joy, though their cavernous empty house only underscores how disconnected they’ve always been from each other. Nolan finds himself drifting from his familiar present-day life in pursuit of lost time after meeting a troubled young man named Leo on his drive home. What begins as an aimless drive down an unfamiliar street turns into a life-altering series of events.

As Robin Williams’ final film, it tolls a wonderful bell for the legacy of a distinguished career.

[Montiel] reinvents himself, dialing down the machismo of early releases to craft a story of tremendous compassion.
70
[A] tender but unsentimental take on a story that benefits from finesse.
70
This is one of the kindest characters Williams has ever played, which makes his self-imposed turmoil — the consequence of not wanting to hurt anyone, least of all his wife — all the more tragic.
60
Boulevard consistently evokes the road not traveled, but doesn’t particularly stand out alongside other dramas that have explored the same terrain.
