Well how the ‘ bleep’ did i miss this after recommending it so many times ???
Shame on me … and apologies to all I’ve complained to .
As for the movie …. this has become one of my favorite movies … period … as it does an excellent job of how ‘ normal ‘ people many times react in times of crisis ( guilt as charged … after a very ugly divorce from my first wife … its what I did … only in the opposite direction ( Vancouver to Montreal ) and back home to Colorado )
So …. mea culpa … and do watch this … yeah … it aint the macho version of yerself you wish you were … but rather the real version when faced with tragedy

and you thought we didn’t listen 🙂
