: Listen, Kevin. I'm going to try not to come off as one of those TP's, and yet, still keep it real.
: I've seen the movie. It rocks hard ass. I loved the film. I cried, I laughed frequently, and I even
: had trouble understanding the awesome dialogue from time to time because of the astounding
: audience reaction to the punchlines. No one could even gasp when the shit got heavy. Why?
: Because the film is Just. That. Good. It's not just some sentimental film--it's a POWERFUL film. It
: has a weight that comes with it that shows that it came from real emotion.
: And I can't just let people trash it, pass it along, or overlook it. And I can't very well have you
: feeling poorly. I know you must be feeling pretty shitty fielding the same questions over and over
: from the likes of Access Hollywood or other "barely there" presshounds. But come on man. This
: movie is gonna overcome that.
: How? I can't say for sure. I'm trying as hard as I can to get the word out here in SA, and although
: that's not much, every bit helps. I just had an hourlong conversation with a friend of mine and I
: got him to go, mostly because I told him just how much it can move you if you let it. Cause it
: can.
: And yeah, I pretty much seem like a fanboy here saying this, but who cares right? I can honestly
: say that if I had never seen film one by Mr. Kevin Smith, that this film would still touch me. I was
: actually glad that you made it. It has even topped my personal "Powerful Movies Chart," which
: had previously been headed up by Road to Perdition by Mendes.
: I'm really sorry if you're feeling a little low, (maybe you weren't, but you had a very low tone on
: your post.) but I just wanted to say "buck up, buddy," even if said in the most roundabout of
: ways.
