Seeing is believing…or is it the other way around?
This one has been sitting in my netflix queue for quite a while. For some reason there always seemed to be something else I wanted to see more. Maybe I just didnt think it would be that good..I don’t know, but I never got to it…till today.
It starts out kind of slow, but maybe that’s a good thing. After all, isn’t most of life just that; slow? So when it sneaks up on you, the messages are even more profound. Maybe it needs that. Don’t get me wrong, there’s nothing complex here. No subtle plots and counter-plots with twists at the end. It’s a very basic story, with very basic characters, acting out what is probably the most basic question of the human condition: Do you Believe?
Enjoy
