tjmady: Amen. My favorite film of all-time (and that's saying something, cuz' I'm 53 and have been rabid filmfan since I was 10). Film, director, & actors got shafted by Academy. Peter Weir's masterpiece, JB's best performance of career (yes, imo, better than "Crazy Heart" and "Lebowski" roles), & Rosie, only one nominated, in her career-best role was sooo much more deserving than the other 4, who didn't come close. A-way, one of the deepest films ever - agreed.
One of the most moving films I've ever seen. I literally burst into tears when the credits started to roll, which isn't something I do often. I can't recall any other movie that has made me feel this way...
Soulcornflake1&Gildos2: Whoever & wherever u 2 are, u have excellent taste regarding brilliant films & performances. IMO, Academy purposely snubbed film because of Weir - not an "in-crowder". 93's Best Picture, Director, Actor, & Best Supporting Actress!!! It's ironic that film got one sole nom. & Rosie clearlly outshined other 4; the salt in wound is, they gave Oscar 2 a 12 yr old who sucked.
rbinfo: tad defnsve wen it comes 2 ths flm. 1)Hvn't seen "flwlss fim" yet, be it cuz' of actng, s-play, dirctr, editng, mus'l scre, etc. 2) JB is my Fave actr of all-time. THIS prfrmnce is his BEST(inc L-Ski, CH) 2 date. 3)Ded rite re Acdmy! IMHO, 93's B Pctre, B Drctr(btw, Weir's Masterpiece, who ws jstfibly pissed off tht flm & crew were snubbed). 4)Rosie's bst role evr-dzrvd Oscar. 2. Fearless in my Top 10 of All Time. Compelling look at loss/hartake & how love/cmpssn can soothe/hlp heal. 5
I had tears streaming down my face during the last 5-10 minutes of this film. Extremely powerful. I can't believe this movie only made 7 million and was pretty much ignored by the Academy except for a nomination for Rosie Perez. Bridges and director Peter Weir should have been nominated as well.
I just finished watching this movie and i actually liked it a lot.does it have flaws?yes.is it jeff bridges best movie?no.cause i mean come on what can top the big lebowski.but overall its a great and a very underrated movie.i give 4 and half star out of 5
This is a very powerful movie, and is one of my favorites! Jeff Bridges does an outstanding performance in this film. He is one of my favorite actors of film, if not my Top favorite! Great movie, highly recommended!
At some point in our life, some of us live through an experience, in which we probably should have died. When that happens, you understand the gift, how fragile it is, and how great it is - for a few moments.

Peter Weir is amazing! I love his movies, specially this one, and Dead Poets Society! And Green Card. Peter, is the best.

For me this is tied with 'The Color of Paradise' for best film ever made in history. Mind bogglingly beautiful.
