It's about learning to see beyond the appearances.

Rating: 10/10 (27 March 2006)

It's a very good movie, worth to be seen. A saw it twice. This movie deserved the Oscar Award. The movie shows many aspects of life: - family relationships - minority issues - appearances vs. reality - discrimination - misinterpretation - respect for men - American stereotypes - racism. People living in a big city like LA are not like people in the "real cities" because they misses the sense of touch.They bump into each other in order to feel something. People "crash" into each other but they don't see the person they bump into it, they only see the color of the skin. Their PREJUDICES are leading to > MISUNDERSTANDING which leads to > CONFUSION and that leads to > FEAR and fear leads to > MISCONDUCT. I will end my comment with some lyrics from the soundtrack (last song) "You thought you have all the answers / something happened see it coming / You can't stop it ... " What happened? People are RE-discovering themselves: learn how to see beyond the appearances, learn to respect, they learn to act like human beings again, because there is a human being beyond every black, white or yellow "cover". We are different from animals cause we have judgment. In this movie characters are judging misled by the first impression, they forgot to be human.
