Why I think this is a good movie...

Rating: 9/10 (11 May 2002)

below are the reasons why I think this is a great movie...
1) The movie is cleverly filmed. For example, a scene when the mother was packing her house, the camera moved a cm across per minute. And end product is a camera moving slowing from right to left while the character is in fast motion.
2) Music did what it was meant to do, to push the viewers into a state of insanity and depression
3) There are some really good scenes. The conversation Harry had with his mom when he visited her and found out she was taking those pills was very well done.
4) The acting was also very good. If not for the two young actor/actress, Ellen did an excellent job and yes, she should have won an award at the oscars.
5) The film itself is about anti-drugs, but it is not just about that. It is about attachments to our own beliefs, sorrow and possessions.
