This is a bit like Seven meets Indiana Jones meets The Peacemaker. A interesting film.

Found this was on BBC 2...but unfortunately missed the first half hour or so. Its really very good and is quite thought provoking. I love this type of thing that asks people to be far less assuming about people. Brilliant music too.

Wonderful stuff. I saw this one at round about the same time as Adaptation (same week I think) and again it floored me. The visits to his uncle and trips out with his uncle are very memorable...and Marks determination to get it done, combined with being depressed and wanting to drink the night away...and having a very good honest friend by his side are all things I could relate to. Making a film is just such a huge undertaking, and its all captured here so well. But not only that, we get to see people in their current situation here too, small bits of their private lives, even if its just a glimpse...it fascinated me.

This was one of these films that I sat down to watch and was just totally, totally blown away by it...its definitely one of the best films ever made. Maybe its a kind of a personal thing to say this, but i could relate to a lot of what I saw in this films, thus making it well...very relate-able for me, it?s a truly wonderful film.
