This is How Movies Should Be Made

I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

What begins as a feel-good-human-interest story turns into a mystery, then a tragedy, and ultimately an outrage.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
