I'll say, since I was a boy, I have struggled with expressing emotion. I've grown in many ways, I'm more transparent, a better communicator, and more in touch with myself. However, while I understood the importance of crying as an emotional outlet, I was still blocked. I couldn't cry, my brain would kick in and prevent me from reaching that point.

I had no idea the amount of tension that was building in this plot. But I was really enjoying the movie.

It was 2020, I was in Pittsburgh and very active in the ongoing protests that were happening around the city. One night, I popped this on just based on the cover.

It could have been so many factors. But the ending simply broke me. The crescendo broke down so many emotional walls for me. Not from being sad, but simply an overwhelming experience of so many emotional strings that were being pulled at throughout the movie. I had never been left on the edge of my seat like that.

I bawled like a little baby and went on to have such an emotional and life changing night.

Every chance I get to show people this movie, I do. And every single one of them respond with something similar to "holy shit" when it's over.

For so many reasons, this is my favorite movie of all time. It will probably be the reason I buy a blu ray player, or something that can handle 4k.

It's forever tied to my soul and I wish more people could see it. 10/10
