I SAW IT...and it's good. here's why!


I just want to say that I saw this movie and it was really beautiful. If you like literature or are a fan of "new york" movies that have a magical dramatic arc and feel, this is pretty much in your ballpark. I usually avoid dramatic stuff because the films are usually cheesy and i hate spending ten bucks for cheese. If i wanted cheese, I'd see Alexander or a michael bay blockbuster. This film instead looks at the main character's struggle in an intelligent way. the director is totally on top of his craft and the cinematogaphy is also beautiful. this film proves something that has been going on since the 50's when cassavetes was making movies: even if you have a low budget, if you're a smart individual with a heart, you can portray reality in a way that will always be better than a bunch of hollywood scriptwriters brainstorming in a room with 50 million dollars to push their story. money doesn't equal quality. if you haven't seen this film, check it out.
