Well, of course, this film is thoroughly American — in it, the loss of a job experienced by a previously successful head of a department of a large company is interpreted as almost the end of life, the slumber of libido of his teacher at retraining courses is like the collapse of a marriage, and the ride of citizens without much work on scooters — as a challenge to social routine.

But still, this film can be nice to us too: after all, it is about the fact that you can find a taste for life just when it seems that it has failed … And besides, “Larry” is the directorial debut of Tom Hanks on the big screen. This means that the story of the retraining must have been deeply and personally felt.
