1. I've heard so many good things about it... BUT ...
I am loathe to rent it because it seems so cerebral that it would lose me.

:shrug: Whatcha' think ?


:hippie:

3. Oh my God that movie crushed my soul.
That's a film that I never want to see again, not because it was bad, but because I can't make that kind of emotional investment more than once.:(

6. Excellent film.
I'll probably never see it again - it's such an incredibly sad story. But on the upside, it DID prove that phony-ass shite happy endings aren't necessary for good box office.

8. That movie is amazing
Edited on Sun Dec-05-04 01:54 PM by sundog
One of the best of last year imo

On edit: It definitely shows the underbelly of the precious "ownership culture."
