Production Company: Bob Yari Productions, Jeff Skoll Productions, Southpaw Entertainment, Tribeca Productions USA Box Office: $0 Million Filming Locations: New York City, New York, USA| Paris, France Editorial Reviews Amazon.com House of D is a bittersweet, moving story of an American expatriate's painful decision to come to terms with the childhood he fled in early 1970s New York City. David Duchovny wrote and directed this comedy-drama; he also stars as the adult version of the film's hero, Tom Warshaw, an illustrator who has spent most of his life in Paris and decides—on the occasion of his son's birthday—to finally reveal long-withheld facts about his past. The bulk of the story, told in flashback, portrays 13-year-old Tom (Anton Yelchin) as a quick-witted prince of his neighborhood, a delivery boy who knows every eccentric on his bicycle route and a Catholic school kid fond of playing pranks on his clueless French teacher and soulful principal (Frank Langella). His best friend is the school's mildly retarded, 41-year-old janitor, Pappas (Robin Williams), and his advisor on matters of the heart is Lady (Erykah Badu), a prison inmate whom the fatherless Tom (or Tommy, as he's called in 1973) can neither see nor touch. Tommy's vivacity is an asset at home, where his mother (Tea Leoni), a grieving widow with a mounting addiction to pills, is slipping away from her son's ability to help. Duchovny's screenplay sometimes borders on the precious: A number of scenes are enamored with their own boldness and originality, as if Duchovny has been squirreling away lots of colorfully expressive storytelling details for years, and unloaded them here. But that flaw all but disappears in the glow of House of D 's emotional resonance and honesty, not to mention several exceptional performances. Among these is Zelda Williams's work as Tommy's sage-beyond-her-years girlfriend, Melissa, whose name offers a suitable excuse to work a rather lovely Allman Brothers song into the soundtrack. --Tom Keogh Customers who viewed this DVD also viewed Crash (Widescreen Edition) DVD ~ Don Cheadle In Good Company (Widescreen Edition) DVD ~ Dennis Quaid The Interpreter (Widescreen Edition) DVD ~ Yvan Attal Birth DVD ~ Nicole Kidman Explore Similar Items : in DVD , in Music , and in Books Spotlight Reviews Write an online review and share your thoughts with other customers. 10 of 10 people found the following review helpful: Give me the Dad face , October 21, 2005 Reviewer: Matthew Wilson - See all my reviews This story had ecsaped my attention until recently. I rented it, thinking it had to be decent, given the casting. I was pleasantly surprised upon viewing. The story is relatable and moving. Anton Yelchin gives a stirring performance as a child dealt a difficult hand, struggling to make his own way. Tea Leoni plays very well the role of a distraught, widowed mother who has been left to care for her son. I feel the role of Pappas (played by Robin Williams) could have been slightly more developed, but he turns in a wonderful performance. David Duchovny wrote and directed the movie, as well as acted as the present day version of the main character. It's not the most engaging movie, but it is interesting. It has its moments of humor, sadness and happiness. Altogether a good effort by Duchovny. Was this review helpful to you?

The humor of being thirteen and the jokes we have all told are caught in the most appropriate of depictions. This story is a wonderful Bildungsroman that creates a realistic and fun view of Thomas as a young boy becoming a man and growing apart from his retarded friend(Pappas) by becoming an older mental age than Pappas can ever be. The life journey of Thomas is interesting, sad, funny and heartwarming all at once. Those who are so critical of Duchovny and this film had expectations that were too lofty for anyone to live up to. I have different expectations when I go the movies. I am not there to give amateur critiques of the directing and script. I am there to watch and hopefully be entertained, and this film does not disappoint. Duchovny is subtly funny bordering on hilarious. The depiction of the thirteen-year-old boy in his private school French class is a scene that I will be laughing about forEVER. This movie is well worth its price. Great Job David Duchovny!

Wonderful characters, and some great acting, especially from the lead, Anton Yelchin. Really sweet story, with a proper fairytale ending. Definitely recommend checking this one out.

I have to agree with professional critics on this one as I thought the film was poorly written, poorly shot and, except for the kids, poorly acted. Trite at best. Was this review helpful to you? ( Report this ) 2 of 3 people found the following review helpful: Beautiful story, unfulfilling sensation , November 15, 2005 Reviewer: Adrian Kain "The Lord of the Shoes" (Utah, USA) - See all my reviews I wasn't expecting much from the movie itself to tell the truth, but the two main characters (Papass and Tommy) are easily likable, as well as 'Lady', the woman locked in the House of D. The movie unfolds the story smoothly and with some funny moments, mixed up with drama and sad scenes throughout the main character's childhood. The performances are allright, especially those of Anton Yelchin (Tommy Harshaw), perfect for the role, and Erykah Badu (Lady Bernadette), who plays wonderfully a character who's limited to speak to Tommy from the window of a female cellblock. David Duchovny's is ok, considering he's a good actor, I know he could have done better if his own role had been larger: however, it didn't need to be so. Robin Williams plays a retarded janitor, and does a good job at it but it could have been a little better. Now, on to the weak, or weakest point of the movie: the end. I think the end was stretched like rubber, unnecessarily. I was expecting it to end at a certain point, leaving a little work for my own imagination, but instead they kept going and going, and making it worse every second, boring, corny, useless. It is in my opinion about the only weak point this movie had and it wasn't enough to destroy what was built throughout the story, I enjoyed it thoroughly despite the problem I pointed out before.

I decided upon this film because of the story line of a 13 year old man and his friend who was a mentally challanged 41 year old janitor Papas played by Robin Williams. It was in my opinion a great cast and a role suited for the talented Mr. Williams, but it was far from convincing and, altough a good character, maybe one of Robin's weakest performances. I am not sure if it was some uninspired acting or if the script didn't allow for a deeper performance or if my own expectations were to high. Erykah Badu role as a prison inmate that gives young Tommy advice and an ear was spectacular and was clearly the highlight of this film. Overall I liked the film, it just that I felt like with some expanded charecter development into the mind of Papas and maybe deeper explaining from Papas to Tommy why he stole the bike could have made this a 5 star film instead of a 3 start film. This is a film that had great potential and does have some tender moments it just fell flat. Was this review helpful to you? ( Report this ) See all 24 customer reviews...

Please access the Turkish Embassy website: www.turkconsulate-london.com for more information.     RESIDENCE IN TURKEY     (a)    Residency Permits are obtained AFTER arrival in Turkey. Formal application must be made to the police authorities of the province in which you reside, or to the Aliens department of the Police in Ankara, if no fixed abode in Turkey is intended. HOWEVER, well BEFORE your departure from the UK, you should contact the Turkish Embassy in London for information on requirements for residency and for information about importation of your household goods or car.

For example, a 2 year, permit currently costs 740.000.000 TL plus a booklet fee of 65.000.000 TL, and a five year permit 1.820.000.000 TL, roughly equivalent to £335 and £785 respectively.     The Embassy has written to the Turkish authorities asking for a review, with a view to reducing these fees.         EMPLOYMENT IN TURKEY   A Work Permit is required for employment in Turkey.  These permits are issued by the Ministry of the Interior in Ankara.  We again strongly advise those wishing to take up employment in Turkey to contact, before travelling, the Turkish Embassy in London and/or their prospective employer in Turkey about the procedures for obtaining a Work Permit or access the Turkish work permit website www.csgb.gov.tr     REQUIREMENTS FOR TURKISH WORK VISAS     Companies seeking to employ UK nationals in Turkey must first obtain approval from the Turkish Ministry of Labour and Social Security to hire foreign citizen employees.  Prospective employers may obtain application forms for work permits at www.csgb.gov.tr.

Therefore, until the law is ratified and approved by the Parliament any applications made by the foreigners to the land registry office will NOT be processed. (as announced by the General Directorate of Land Registry Office on or about 26 July 2005)   Unfortunately, we have not been given a time scale when the matter may be resolved.
