Beautiful!!!!!

Rating: 9/10 (14 May 2001)

I am amazed at how well the writer was able to take a story about ordinary life and transform it into this masterpiece . Everybody...down to the sales girl at the Mr. Smiley Burger Restaurant was brilliant and Kevin Spacey was awesome . I have found new respect for him as an actor . This film proves that you don't have to have a complicated storyline filled with mystery and suspense to impact on an audience . Sometimes it is the lives of ordinary people with ordinary problems that are gripping and interesting. The direction was equally impressive --Sam Mendes ytruly deserved that oscar .

If anyone has not seen this movie (though I doubt it) run for the video store now!!!
