Beautiful

Rating: 10/10 (1 August 2003)

First and foremost, to address the film's critics: yes, this is a movie that asks for a certain level of raw emotion from its viewers. Its notion of freedom exists on a very primal, unsophisticated level. Those whom this does not bother, however, are in for one of the greatest cinematic experiences of their lives. Powerful acting, perfect scoring, masterful cinematography, good scripting - what more do you need?
