[QUOTE="Lady Dragon, post: 265265, member: 3453"] This was without a doubt the best movie so far this year,you can expect multiple Oscar nominations Hanks(Best Actor),Newman(Best Supporting actor)Mendes(Best Director) as well as Best picture,Best Adapted Screenplay and best Cinemetography,probably others as well. Jude Law could also be nominated for Best supporting actor. Spoilers.... This movie was much deeper than just a simple gangster film,It was about the unconditional love that a father has for his son. The irony that two men Sullivan(Hanks) and Rooney(Newman) could have devoted their lives to a life of crime,yet both were willing to sacrifice it all even their own lives to protect their Sons even though there sons had brought this pain upon them with their foolish actions. The Acting By Hanks,Newman and Law is unbelievable.Hanks play Sullivan as a calm cool professional who handles the Revenge for his wife and young child in the same cool professional manner that had earned him the respect of his peers.Newman plays the old ganster torn between the love of his natural son and his foster son with a charisma that told you why all of these men followed and why Sullivan loved him so much.As for Law what can I say he personified creep.Whereas the Hanks character killed because it was his job Law's character killed because it was a form of art,a way to express himself. After a summer of Average films,we finally have a masterpiece. As for why the deal was struck to allow Sullivan to kill Connor Rooney.It was done out of respect for a man who had earned there respect to right an injustice they knew had been perpertrated on him.(and it didn't hurt that it was a job they needed to do anyhow.)
