Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close
OMBejesus. Has anyone else seen this? Did you cry, like, 17 times like I did? Or did you just cry continuously from start to finish?

For less then ten cents a day, you can feed a hungry child.
It was good. Just very hard to see and kind of re-live. It made me a little panick-y again, being reminded of all the chaos that was happening at the time.
I was interested to see how much of the Grandpa's story got put into the movie, and it wasn't much at all.
No thank you. I don't need any help being depressed.
Tom Hanks seems like he'd be a good dad in real life.
This, except I will have to see it if it manages to win Best Picture since we are still working on our quest to see them all.
I didn't want to see this but my FB has been blowing up with how amazing it was so I might put it on my netflix list or something.
I agree, TSD, I think the opening had little to do with the cast and a lot more to do with the subject matter.
Wait, so you are offended that Hollywood cashed in on tragedy? So no Hurt Locker? No Schindler's List? None of those are ok?
Did they advertise Hurt Locker in Walter Reed? I live and work blocks from the WTC site.
I'm not sure if I could do it. Watching the aftermath in person was enough for me.
If I watch it, I'll wait until it's on DVD so I can ugly cry in privacy. I definitely couldn't handle it in the theater.
I have never seen a commercial for it, I assumed from the title that it was about autism. I don't know why.. it just seems like a good title for a movie about autism.
Anyways... I don't think I want to see it.
