A Conservative voice thanking Sean Penn

Rating: 10/10 (23 March 2011)

Sitting here with the excellent soundtrack from Eddie Vedder playing and I just wanna say that I disagree with every aspect of Sean Penn's politics but that being said I wanna say thank God for this movie. If you love stories about the questions of life, hard times and sacrifice you will love this movie. If you ever hitchhiked, read Even Cowgirls get the Blues, smoked, laughed and met that moment when you really FEEL life coursing through your veins, this movie is why movies are made. This movie crosses over the boundaries between conservative, liberal, urban, educated, rural. It is a truly honest American experience and one which many instinctively recognize as their own story. I doubt I'm going to live to see a better film. Thank you, thank you Mr.Penn.
