I'm surprised there is not a thread started for this movei...forgive me if I missed it. Just saw this movie last night and was amazed at its depth, humanity, completeness and sensitivity. It is brilliant, on many levels. My DH leaned over toward me at the end and said, "If this doesn't win an Oscar, I don't know what will!" Clint Eastwood is a master story teller and really hit it home with this movie. I hope you all get a chance to see it. I'd love to hear some other observations...

I agree. I'm not a fan of Mr. Eastwood's filmmaking, but I thought this was exceptional.

I just saw this today. WOW. I am naturally going to compare it to Clint's other effort of the year "Flags of Our Fathers". What a difference in my eyes. "Flags" was almost a nap movie for me, while I couldn't take my eyes off the screen for this one. Has anybody else seen it yet? My gosh, it's just great.

It was very good. One of the AMC's had a special showing of all 5 Best Pic Noms the day before the Academy Awards. We were quite impressed with Letters from Iwo Jima. My favs in order: 1. The Queen 2. Little Miss Sunshine 3. Letters from Iwo Jima 4. Babel 5. The Departed Didn't really care for #'s 4 & 5 at all. In fact, I have been disappointed in several Best Pic winners.

I just now saw the DVD. The movie has a lot to recommend it. I especially liked the actor who played the young husband. Surprisingly, he is a member of a popular Japanese boy band.
