I've been recommending this movie for 10 years, until I forgot what it was about.
Rewatching it on the big screen 10 years later and realizing it was too broad, too American social reality, too idealistic, too left-handed, too confusing, too personal. There are many detailed interpretations about this movie. When I say an almost perfect movie to others, maybe I don't know who I am and who others are, or where we are. Even my understanding of others is a self-imagination, and I don't want to recommend it to others.
Look, just you know one thing about me. A thing doesn't make a man.
At the end of the credits, I found that the music was made by Brocken Social Scene, and the lines that were not spoken in the key scenes were all helped by the music.
Reminds me of participating in a violent neighborhood social worker event in Chicago last year and buying a child's painting.
