deserved the Oscar

Rating: 10/10 (15 June 2006)

WHAT A MOVIE. BREATHTAKING. excellent screenplay ,mind blowing performances and finally a movie with a message and one which gets through too.i can now see why the movie won the Oscar despite all the "brokeback" hype. simply because its good and it is the best of all the movies nominated. the events of a day which crosses the lives of a few people is neatly woven to give a great film. Matt Dillon, Don Cheadle and Ludacis come up with stellar performances.nonetheless all credit goes to Paul Higgins. pity he hasn't come up with more masterpieces.a few scenes are a standout and lift the movie to new heights. the movie gives an impression that its about racism. honestly its more about people and their views on racism.proof that you don't have to bore to get an Oscar.a must see.
