At some point, when I wasn’t looking, Brad Pitt became a really, really good actor.
I think Babel is fantastic. . . But I loved Amores Perros and I like stories where a random event causes dominos of dramatic action to be knocked over that you weren’t expecting. . .
Anyway. Two thumbs up from me.
I have either a raging headache or those bugs from the Wrath of Khan are eating away my brain, so I’m not really in the mood to write more. But Babel is beautiful and terribly sad.
I do think however that the next trip to the cinema is going to need to be a comedy.

Glad that someone enjoyed it, ’cause I really didn’t like it. It felt overlong and short of story. I loved 21 grams but the some of characters in this irritated me, and although on reflection - why should random events only effect people we feel sympathy with? And why should they learn anything? Maybe it’s just the weather and I was in a bad mood when I saw it.
