    The bravery of the prosecutor and his team and his family has to be seen to be believed. The moments in this film! Some dark places. Some light. What an amazing story and a fantastic film to tell it.

    Made it. With the bathroom light and the hall light on. And a tear.

    Respectful. This feels so deeply respectful of the injured, the dead, and the survivors.

    Pardon me? What’s that? You’re going to have to speak up I just saw Dune 2 in IMAX. I laughed: sometimes at the shear scale of it, sometimes at the lighter moments. Worms! I felt humbled by Dune Part Two. And very satisfied. As a reader of the first two books, this film has done something that the books could not; it made me want to read the books again.
