Review:
Possibly one of the best movies ever made. No kidding!

Christian Bale at his best and sexiest. ;) hehehe

The puppy/dog scene is one of the best ever!!

A movie that makes you think. A movie that will make you cry and cheer. Beautifully acted and directed. A must-see!! I could watch this movie every day and not blink.

Especially with two of the most beautiful actors ever (Christian Bale and Emily Watson), how can you not see this film??
