In Detachment Adrien Brody plays the character of Henry Barthes, a substitute teacher who finds it hard to touch base with his students—as well as his own life—and still hopes that there will be meaning in it for him. Brody gives a brilliant performance and gets to show something the role demands: the various nuances that make teaching in a ghetto school so ambiguous and miserable. The harsh realities of the education system are the subject of Henry's meandering course through the film, and Brody adds dimension, emotion, and urgency to this ultimately depressing film about the human experience.
