Excellent Moral Theme; Enlightening

Rating: 8/10 (16 September 2005)

Some of us can not see past our prejudice, through to the heart of our fellow man. My statement seems trite; but this movie is definitely not trite. For many it will be an eye opener. This movie helps the viewer experience the love in the lives of people of different ethnicity other than ones own. The movie helps us see how complex and insidious prejudice is and how it is profoundly embedded in the nation's character. Perhaps more importantly the movie shows how prejudice can cause deadly harm, harm based on maddening irrationality. Is this irrationality to continue forever? Our we never to get past our nation's shame? Is Los Angeles or is the nation headed for a crash?
