When a picture's this good three hours fly by.

Rating: 10/10 (14 November 1998)

This is one of the finest films I have ever seen. The three hours flew by. What impressed me most was Brad Pitt's different characterizations of the young man we see in the drug store, a pleasant, exuberant young man, and Joe Black. As the latter, he portrayed a naively caring person. I never saw Death Takes A Holiday, but it would be difficult for me to conceive how it could have been as heart-warming a picture as Meet Joe Black.
