Review of 21 Grams (2003) by Mark C — 05 Jun 2011
The weight of a stack of five nickels. The weight of a hummingbird. A chocolate bar. How much does guilt weigh? How much does life way?
Emotionally affecting, I loved the edit of non-linear little bits of scenes. It kept the story flowing, off-balance, uncomfortable and on the edge of my seat.
Did you know that eating alone could cause kidney damage? And that's BAD.
Writer: Guillermo Arriaga of Babel, The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada, and Amores Perros.
The earth turned to bring us closer. It turned on itself and in us, until it finally brought us together in this dream.
Director: Alejandro González Iñárritu of Biutiful, Babel, and Amores Perros.
It's like we're trying to put a Band-Aid on something that's just been bled dry.
Stars: Sean Penn, Naomi Watts, and Benicio Del Toro. Also Charlotte Gainsbourg and Melissa Leo.
Life goes on...
