That was an excellent one.
How sad is this?
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
This was a well crafted movie...but only seemed to tell one-side of the story. Yes, there was something phenomenal happening with the workers, community, "Artie T", etc. all being involved. Loyalty like this is a rarity.But the "Arthur S" side of the family had some legitimate beefs with the way the company was being run. Let's not forget that Arthur S prevailed in court proving that Artie T screwed his side of the family, and was funneling profits in many ways back to his own family.This was well done, and surprised me in the production value, and the thoroughness of the filmmaker. My only concern is that it appeared to only tell one side of the story.
