Real life resonates in this movie!

Rating: Null/10 (12 January 2007)

I continue to be touched by the real life perspectives that are presented in this movie, and so many of the comments (dialogue) from (and between) the characters resonate deeply for me about life! From the beginning when Gere's lawyer character is describing how legal papers seem to be a ultra-simplistic summation of some people's lives, to Sarandon's depth of focus when talking about bearing witness to each others' lives so that we can each know that our life matters, even among billions of people on the planet... and then Gere's very human admission about feeling guilty for "...wanting to be happier, when we (already) have so much..." speak volumes to me about my own life every time I watch this movie. I hope I can learn these lessons as well as the characters did in the movie.
