1. Do yourself a favor and see it. It's very powerful and well-acted.
it's an important film on a lot of different levels, actually. :hi:

2. It is my (hopefully not vain) hope that someday that movie will be seen as an entirely normal love
story. :)

Until then... it is a powerful movie that deals with powerful issues.

And yes, you will get a little bit misty-eyed at the end.

4. I haven't, but obviously, it's going to be scarce on the rental-house shelves...
RIP Keith.

8. I have and it's one of those classic great movies you'll
never forget. I'm serious. It's a great movie. On a thumbsup system of 1 being the least and 5 being the most, I give it:

:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

I know, I'm all thumbs, but it's a great movie. :)

10. I watched it again tonight, as a tribute to Mr. Ledger
I felt it was the only fitting thing for me to do, even though it was very painful.

11. The horribly sad story of someone trying to create a language
(system of representation and meaning for the love they share with someone)...

Don't want to spoil it, so let's just say it is FARKIN' sad.

14. Several times.
It's one of the most honest, most beautiful love stories ever committed to film.

15. Seen it, love it.
I mentioned in another thread, I'm part of a BBM fandom, that writes stories and poems and stuff. We took the news of Mr. Ledger's passing very hard.

17. Haven't seen it.
Not my kind of movie. I like movies about events and not just about feelings. I don't think a love story is really a story.
