She could smoke a cigar in the shower. Demme does that in Silence Of The Lambs also. It gets to you like most,obviously---case closed. I picked up on that too and I'm sorry that I did,---ugh! Fortunate Son by Wyclef Jean?-A musically horrible remake---but lyrically and politically relevant to the movie.I love CCR and saw J Fogerty live in Bethlehem PA,USA about 15 yrs ago. That's probably my fav CCR song. But there's so much good stuff to choose from... I laughed out loud at your comment and agree---thanks. I'm glad Pitt played Dt.Mills.We need the diversity. So much worse than Inglorious Bastards, I agree. At the end when the boy says 'I think Dad had a party' I said to myself, please don't let it end on a stupid Eli Roth joke, and it went to black. I was sorry that I was right. All for a stupid ending and Much ado about nothing. I thought the same.Other onlookers were like 'Oh,now you're in trouble'.The price of thinking. Some of the 'performers' were using glossalia( meaningless religious gibberish,made up to confuse the poor 'converts'). Funny! I thought parting of the Red Sea when the car wash opened up.I think that's what the filmmakers' were going for.But that's just me. Yes, it spoke for itself. I thought the movie was strange with no commentary. I kept thinking maybe the second half of the docu would present the opposite take on things. But with the lady coming out of the car wash at the end---and it opening up for her, like they always do---made me think of it as symbolic, like the 'parting' of the Red Sea. She probably thought it was god opening up the car wash for her to go talk to a burning bush. Totally agree.Get off the fence you "agnostics". Gibberish,really. The adults were doing it. It's is in 'Religulous' also(a man wears a suit in a desperate attempt to legitimise it).I forgot the technical term for it.It's supposedly the lord speaking through you in a tongue you don't understand.Some religious zealots practice for hours just to dumbfound you and throw you off balance, thinking there might actually be something behind it. There's not. Great question. I'm very surprised at the negativity toward this movie also.I really liked it.This was so refreshing for this day & age,considering what's out there.But I'm not new to the scene, digesting anything the contemporaries throw at me.I watch stuff from approx.the 50's till current times. No superheroes, dumb comedies,or women trying to be men.At least not for me.I give it an 8/10. Thanks.Finally a centered voice of reason. Love your comment! Scott,I agree with your comment about Amadeus.All the music (being a musician also) was an attempt to add grandeur and make the overly-long film justifiable. It ended up steamrolling over the plot---making the story itself secondary. Those who can't understand think you want to take ALL of the music out(oversimplified thinking).Like if the music was removed we'd forget it was about a composer(2 actually) AND his music.Pearls before swine. I thought Silence O T Lambs also.Young,female newbie. How did you get your scar.I was waiting Spader to say"Quid Pro Quo, Starling" Funny! Thanks for the laugh!
