This is a light romance. There are 2 story lines. One takes place in the 1997 and the other in the 1970's. The movie moves at a slow pace, there no real high or low points, sometimes the movie is boring. The cinematography is pretty good and there's lots of music from the 1970's. All in all, a very mellow movie. Worth a look if you have nothing to watch.

Requiem for a Dream
(2000)
They should make high school kids/seniors watch this movie
24 February 2002
The movie is about addictions, mainly drug addictions, and how 4 people spiral down into grief and despair due to the effects of these addictions. It is a powerful movie, superb acting by the 4 main characters, with lots of emotions thrown in. The crazy camera angles / effects added immensely to the film. I cringed, was shocked, felt sorry, etc. at several scenes. The movie does make you think and it was good there was NOT a happy ending. No sugar coating in this movie. I think the film can also make an impact on high school kids on how drugs could shatter their lives, and the lives of friends and family. The "gang bang" scene was very disturbing.
