Fuck.
i shelved this movie for a long time, i don't know why, maybe it was divine intervention, because i don't think i would have appreciated it enough earlier, I am an addict. H and C for a long long time, sober 3 months.
I am moved.
In a profound way.
This will be forever in my top 10 of all time across all genres. ( i have watched it 3 times and am planning to watch it again when the moment presents itself).
EDIT: no disrespect to anyone, but i believe people are missing the point of this film.
don't get me wrong, the acting is off the charts but it's the message that makes it so impactful.
