On reviewing

I spent about an hour and change writing my wholly uninspired review of Miracle at St. Anna. Mike Lane, who just saw that film last night, took that same hour and wrote out a review\rant that puts my feeble critique to shame.

I may have studied film. Mike Lane lives it.

I marvel at his ability to to see beyond the surface story and pick up on all the auteuristic underpinnings that lay underneath.

I am truly impressed.
