Blown Away
I won't go into much detail about the movie since there's enough of that already. I just wanted to comment that this not only is a story about the rise and fall of a notorious drug dealer, but also the story of a man and his family. It's about the love a father has for his daughter and the promises that he tries but in the end can't keep. In the beginning of the movie, George Jung(Johnny Depp) deals drugs to make money. After his daughter is born though, he gets out of the business and tries unsuccessfully to lead a more 'normal' life with his wife and kid. In the end though it all falls apart for him since he's penniless and dismissed by both his wife and daughter. It's a tragic story that will leave one with the pangs of regret for not only the mistakes that Jung made but also of the love he missed out from his daughter,ie. his whole world.
