Has anyone else seen this yet? Saw it last night and despite having fewer than 100 words of dialogue in it, found it to be very compelling. We all already know that Robert Redford is a great actor, but I was deeply impressed with his ability to convey so many different thoughts and emotions without actually saying anything. Lord knows if I were in his situation I would have dropped a few more F-bombs, even if only to myself. I'm still thinking about the ending, though, and what it meant.
And please - no complaints about spoilers. It's right there in the title.
Well, it's not for everybody. For those who need everything spelled out, constant visual hyperstimulation, and to be given cues about how they should feel about particular characters, perhaps they would have more fun staying home and watching Transformers: Dark of the Moon again.

I see...anyone who disagrees with your appreciation of this film, you then condemn in a condescending manner. If you don't like it it must be due to cultural retardation on your part? That about it?
Nope, not at all. I actually value someone's opinion who sees a film and has a different take on it from me because it gives a different perspective to think about it. But to trash it without bothering to see it? Come on. Go see it and tell me it why it was terrible and then we can have a conversation about it.

But you have already provided us with your perspective on people who don't share your cinematic tastes. You assume that this must be someone..

You further assumed that someone disagreeing with you about this movie must be the sort who is satisfied with:

So, your thinking is clear. Someone says that they do not like Ernest Hemingway's writing, that can only mean that they read nothing more sophisticated than comic books.
Now you say that the price of having a conversation with you is me having to sit through a movie which I do not think I would like.
What you aren't doing is providing me with any reason to think that I would enjoy a conversation with you.
