a movie is not like real life

unless it is The House of Sand and Fog. Filled with characters that are multi-faceted. Characters that you do not think you can like, and then you find yourself doing exactly that. Sorrow and despair as deep as in real life. A movie that will cure you of any optimism you may have been feeling and set you straight: Ripping out your heart with pain as you sense the inevitable and you watch the rug being pulled out yet again.

Hero is not like real life. It is much better than that. it is the pain that comes with understanding, a pain we would be lucky to feel.
