Yeah, I love this movie

Rating: 10/10 (8 December 2007)

10 out of 10 for me too, Mr. Sponseller. Some trivia first. Two of my favorite movies star both Pitt and Hopkins. The other one being "After the Fall" of course. And I just noticed the other night that "Twelve Monkeys", for which Brad Pitt won a Golden Globe, also contains Louie Armstrong's "What a Wonderful World". "Meet Joe Black" is on satellite a lot, and I watch it most of those times. I bought the sound tract CD, for Thomas Newman's beautiful music. Susan and Joe are staring at each other to Newman's music right now, and Pitt does this so well. Claire Forlani, also. The two scenes with the old Haitian lady were just so damn good, too. I wonder whether that was one scene, and seeing it, Brest thought: "We have to have more of this". Bravo to Martin Brest, who directed some other great films. Great cast here. Jeffrey Tambor is perfect as "Quince", a complex character. No, he's not a pedophile; just a sentimental guy who knows he married well. The look that Marcia Gay Hardin's Alison gives him at the dinner table is priceless. Wrapping this up, the handsome, talented kid from Missouri continues to do fine work.
