what you get out of it

Rating: 9/10 (13 November 2007)

some of the best art(music,sculpture,film,etc)occurs when the viewer/listener brings their own experience to the process,which allows different viewpoints..i don't mean liked it or disliked it,but how they feel about it or what they thought the artist was saying.. i felt that NCFOM was about the relentless and randomness of fate..moss didn't endanger himself because he stole the money,but because he went BACK to help the injured man..the man who stopped to help anton was killed,but the woman in the office who told anton off lived..moss's stubborn courage got himself and his wife killed,but the sheriff's keen sense of danger caused him to hesitate outside the motel door,and helped to save his life..anton is badly injured in the car accident,but our wishing for his death didn't happen because,as in real life,the bad guy does not always get whats coming to him..the boy giving his shirt to anton shows that evil is not easily recognized,and good people frequently enable it...really ggod movie,flaws and all..
