I saw this movie and loved it. It's based on a John LeCarre novel and I don't think it's based on a true story in any way. It didn't make me feel like shit, but made me feel like there was someone else in the world who felt love as truly as I did. Corny, I know, but true.

if you watched the whole thing, you probably wouldn't think the way she acted was weird or annoying. bc i thought that at first. everything was better at the end. seriously. watch the whole thing.

i loved that movie so much. i thought it was so good. everything from camera angles to screen play. i think if a movie that's sad truly makes you feel like shit afterwards.. and for a long time afterwards, then it's a well made movie because it left an impression. that sentence was so ugly. :P

Wow this is weird. I actually saw this movie the other day and I'm taking a class in Global Issues, focused on Africa. I asked the teacher TODAY if it was true. Like, I knew the whole murder story (at least this particular one), of course, wasn't true. But he said, yeah, a lot of drug companies test their drugs on these people. People don't die to the extreme that they did in the movie but of course, people do get affected by it. It's really sad.

This whole class, actually, has made me decide to do mission work in Africa. I've already started looking into it. I mean, everyone in the world knows that Africa is a horrible place to live but until I started learning the details and everything, I didn't really care enough to help. But man....there's some FUCKED UP SHIT going on.

Yah, I knew the background was based in fact, but the plot itself wasn't. Either way, it's still a powerful movie.

I'm glad everyone else(, Laura) was so moved by this movie. I'm really considering doing some mission work or something over there. I want to help in any way that I can. I figured the underlining story was true that's the part that influenced me most anyways. I really thought it was an amazing story. Laura let me know if you do plan on doing anything, I'd love to join.

p.s. caermon who are you?
