It was a while since I last saw this movie.

the last 20 minutes are ridiculous when dude was driving his son to and across the GWB.

Re-watched this last night with my GF. She usually likes kinda silly, whimsical films that emphasize storytelling and are bow tied with a happy ending.

With that said she thought it was an excellent film. I was actually surprised how much she liked it.

With 9/11 coming up I wanted to watch this again since it captured the spirit of 9/11 after the attacks. The anger of it happening and the resilience of New Yorkers.

Edward Norton. Been following him since Primal Fear. He had some great films.

Also shout out to Spike Lee. I was intrigued when it first came out because he tends to do films with a Black cast so for him to have him directing a moving with Norton, Barry Pepper, and Phillip Seymour Hoffman all in a film I was intrigued.

Apparently he's difficult to work with.

yeah it's a known secret that he goes beyond just acting in movies and steps into other areas like writing or directing which understandably doesn't go well

add some perfectionism a la a Dr.Dre and theres your recipe for shade

his American History X, Fight Club, 25th hour run is collosal to me
