Amazing

Rating: 10/10 (2 October 1999)

I've been a Sam Mendes fan for many years, and yes, I know this is his first film. He has once again blown me away with his vision and story-telling. And what is he, 32??
This is an extraordinary film in any year. In a year as dismal as this one (hey, it's October already, folks) it is far and away the best thing I've seen. Look for award nominations for writing, directing, acting, cinematography, and editing, at least. A complex, wholly entertaining film that had me in tears with a smile on my face when the credits (both of them) rolled.
Go.
