Beyond brilliant..

Rating: 9/10 (11 January 2003)

This one is difficult to put into words. In fact, I think if anything is to be said about this movie, it's just 'watch it.' My wife and I did so in complete silence. By the end, we couldn't even look at each other for fear of seeing tears in the other's eyes. The imagery is remarkable. The story is compelling. The ending is haunting. I'd be tempted to say that this movie is on the same emotional level (in a realistic sense) as the great 'Schindler's List.'
Watch it and let it make you see the fragility of life.
