Forgiven (2006)
phenomenal film
This is one of those unsung films that did not get enough screen time. It is compelling and rich in subtext. I think it was nominated for the Sundance Film Festival as well. "Forgiven" makes you question your value system and entertains while doing so. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! The cast was remarkably talented and portrayed their roles beautifully while not being too maudlin. The facts are these...too often these days, the films that are reaping great box office rewards are those that are relying on special effects or unrealistic story lines that lead the audience down a path of misconception or super-realism. This story is compelling because of the story itself- think "The Green Mile" or any other film that compels one to think outside themselves, and you will get a feeling for "Forgiven".
