WONDERFUL!

Rating: Null/10 (17 September 2004)

Number 1: I ADORE Cold Mountain! It is one of the best movies I have seen in a long time. Ruby is BY FAR my favorite character in the movie, Ruby and Reverend Veasey. Even my Dad, who will sleep through the best of movies, loved this movie.
Number 2: The music in this movie was fantastic! The scene with the Siege of Petersberg, that song makes the scene! It adds such an emotional impact. I found myself crying when Oakley got stabbed, the song already had me in tears. Plus the 2 Allison Krauss songs really set the mood.
Number 3: Words don't do Cold Mountain justice, to me anyway. There are so many well known people in this movie, Jude Law, Nicole Kidman, Renee Zellweger, Jack White (The White Stripes), Ethan Suplee (Louie Lastik, Remember the Titans), Lucas Black (the kid from Sling Blade), Phillip Seymour Hoffman (Dusty from Twister), Natalie Portman (Novalee from Where the Heart Is), Giovanni Ribisi (Phoebe's brother from Friends) and the list goes on and on and on!
Number 4: We rented it from Netflix and I AM NOT sending it back until I buy it and it's soundtrack. I LOVE THIS MOVIE!
Renee Zellweger definitely deserved her Oscar for Ruby. (Way to go Renee!)
So, I guess if Ruby was telling you to watch this movie she'd say, Number 1: RENT THIS MOVIE! Number 2: BUY THIS MOVIE! Number 3: YOU AIN'T GONNA REGRET IT! ~Missy~ ;-)
