I won't spoil it here, might make a separate thread at some point with my thoughts, but it really put a nuanced and original touch on an aspect of our culture that's really hot right now without preaching or even taking a stand. Just presenting a story that is very moving.

Great. Goddamn. Movie.
I saw it having not heard of it. While not terribly happy or uplifting it is an incredible movie. I'm not all that much of a Clooney fan, although he is good in a role being "cool". This is far far outside of that caricature, and he killed it. This with Gravity, I may have to change my mind.
