Amazing film!

Rating: 10/10 (27 October 2006)

This film is right up there with Pulp Fiction. It was amazing. We watched this in my English Composition class, and I wished I had seen it earlier because it was just ... incredible.
It follows a group of people whose lives all become intertwined by a pretty much random series of events, and the central conflict for all of them is racism.
And here is my spoiler: There is a scene when Farhad confronts Daniel, and Daniel's daughter (Lara) is watching. In an earlier scene, Daniel gives Lara a special invisible cloak that will protect her from everything, and because Lara worries for her father's life, she runs outside IN FRONT OF THE GUN to protect him. Farhad shoots, and Daniel screams while he holds his daughter in his arms. the sound is gone from the scream, and it is beautifully shot. The scene is incredible. Then all of a sudden, there is a small girl's voice saying "I'll protect you, Daddy." But that's all I'm going to say because I want you all to see this scene for yourself.
But I DARE you to watch this movie and NOT cry. It's hard to do. You'll love it.
