I can't comment on the specific details of Million Dollar Baby because I have yet to see it. As I said I can only compare it to other movies where the characters are morally bankrupt. As I said Requiem for a Dream is my prime example of this because each character is a drug addict. Of course in the end it is very much an anti-drug film.

When I said the tecnical skill, some films are presented in a method to make us feel more "in" the film. Sometimes low budget films are more successful at this than the 100 mil epics.

I actually like JFK. I thought the movie was good regardless of political leanings or facts overlooked.

I liked JFK, too. I'll check out "Requiem."

Save your money on MDB and buy a DVD of "Unforgiven." Even on my 10th viewing, it's a hundred times better than his latest one.

But what do I know? I liked "Joe vs. the Volcano." 8~)
