I like this film

Rating: Null/10 (22 October 2001)

In my opinion, the beauty of this film is not in what it says but in what it doesn't. For example it doesn't tell that the colonel was in the military school. It doesn't say that he was indoctrinated with all this nazi (or nazi-like) bull***t about discipline, or that he was abused by his homosexual schoolmates. You can only guess it from how he treats his son, from how his wife looks and (rarely) speaks. So take my advice: watch the film again, try to avoid the popcorn and diet cola, and this time, try to read between the lines, and maybe you'll see it's real beauty. Just look closer :o)
