Thank you for sharing your thoughts! I have to say that the 'Last Action Hero' comment is pretty hilarious. I guess in concept they are somewhat similar, but PLEASE know that they are in fact far different films. It saddens me that I have to fear recommending this great movie to folks because of Woody Allen's association with it. His personal life aside - I find him a filmmaker well worth studying. Over the years he has made several films that are really great. Don't completely shut him out! This film is beautiful and always a joy to watch. Thank you for sharing your thoughts!

I can't stand Woody Allen, and even if he doesn't appear in the film, just knowing that it's got his fingerprints on it scares me away. That and the fact that the plot reminds me too much of the Last Action Hero. I can't bring myself to watch it. I don’t think I can accept your recommendation of this one.

I haven't seen this one since college, but now I want to go rent it again. Thanks, Zach! A great movie, and a good review that explains some good spiritual themes.
