Hoooooly mackeral. You're going to have to see this film two or three times to get the full impact of it. One word describes it - Deep. I mean, really deep. The kind of film you walk away from with your head slung down going, "Dayum." The acting is top-notch and did I mention the story was deep. And nice use of symbolism in this film. :up:
