\nWatched “21 Grams<\/a>” on DVD. A really nice, dramatic movie. It has something unamerican about it. I just cannot put my finger on it. Maybe the feeling is from skies shot in somewhat Japanese way. Or maybe it is due to some accordion music. Or maybe it is from something else.<\/p>\n

Tricky situation of the characters in the movie does also make you think about things like organ donations, crime, family and children, traffic accidents, religion… Benicio Del Toro<\/a> (aka Franky Four Fingers<\/a>) plays an excellent role of an ex-con guy. He does a real good job touching on the subjects of religion, belief and faith.<\/p>\n

Overall, a great movie to see if you have some free time and don’t feel the need for any humour. Dramatic. Very.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\n
