Very nice

Quirky and effective.

Nice build up & superb ending observation

Everyone

At least once should escape church in a shocking upheaval, and then embrace the gravity of what they have done. Great synopsis Lesse.

my favorite part of this synopsis...

Is that 90% of the movie is described in the first two stanzas.

In my opinion this movie is a cinematic masterpiece, I focused the poem on the ending but the cinematography and feel of the film is so amazing and true to life. One of my favorite films.

Yep, it was good

I remember leaving the picture feeling good about it. I remember wanting to tell him to stop moping and DO something - oh and Simon and Garfunkul and (of course) the poster...

Poems about what we genuinely care about

Whether it is a poem about something 'big' or something 'small', I suspect it always shows if a poem is written about something we really care about & the poem sort of escapes or if it is a situation where we think 'Oh that would be something good to write a poem about'.

I think it is only the former kind - like this one - that really work
