I like both main characters in this film. I purchased it from Itunes, but I can't watch it again. It's difficult to watch; it's very very very depressing; however, I believe that it's a great movie to watch; it will teach some people how to love and care about others. Most people could care less about family and neighbors, let alone a stranger. I could never put my heart out there like Solo does in this movie. He's my hero!
@justtakeiteasy most films are made for the under 30 age group, who want constant action and little in the way of a story. the good news is that non mainstream films are doing better nowadays as people have cgi/ big budget fatigue, so many films that were made for little by independent film makers are doing well, like lost in translation, l.i.e , station agent, even brokeback mountain was only ever intended for a small audience yet was one of th biggest earners for 2006.
its been a year since this movie was released and im STILL waiting for the theaters to play it. cant even find it on DVDs.. seems like a gr8 movie tho
Nice to see Red West in another movie. In real life he was one of the few who had the courage to try and force Elvis to clean up his life. He loved Elvis so much he put his job and life on the line but to no avail. Red is a great man. TCB.
Great movie! I just watched the whole movie for free in great quality. Just Google (y-slides) and the site should come up first result. (y-slides) is where I watched the movie and didn't have any problems. I would put the website address, but I don't want my youtube account to get in trouble for spam. LOL
i haven't watch this movie yet, so im not gonna say anything about the story, but @1:42 is a fail, jackstand on grass and brick under a disc brake, OMG
The movie is very good, asks difficult questions and gives no cookie-cutter Hollywood answers. Savane's performance is one of the best of the last 10 years. See this movie.
Red West -- by the time the movie ended, I would have pushed his ass off the cliff. The cab driver -- no reality whatsoever -- why the fuck would he keep trying help a fucking cunt like William? William had no redeeming value.
Umm Is it just me or could u not understand half the stuff solo was saying...Then of course really black man i mean really really black man that is friendly and nice to every and white man that smokes a pack a day an hates everyone become best friends..It is truely beautiful
How the hell are you putting value on being black? ... whats "really black" from "really really black"? Solo is just African, like whats a North American born Black person to you? Mildly-Black? or maybe a Carribean Black person is Medium-Black? ... Think about what you just wrote and how amazingly ignorant it was.
This is sad! Can you possibly envision the wind and the variety of geographic features on this glorious planet and that wind might channel and thus move around in certain geographic configurations? It is like water following the path of least resistance, except wind is going to react to resistance in its own way!! Walk around in life! Expose yourself to the wonder of it all! Ask more questions; look around differently at everything you may be taking for granted!
why would the wind be blowing upwards? What? Wind flows in all directions and if it hits a cliff it shears vertically upwards.. why would it not blow upwards?
You underestimate the ignorance of peoples over the internet.
Looking back on what I had said, I have no idea what was going through my mind. I'm wondering if I even wrote those past entries.
And by the way, just because wind hits a cliff, it does not necessarily mean that it will go upwards. It depends on the angle. But I'm sure you already knew that, I'm just being a jerk.
Yeah, I got that much.. I'm just having a hard time believing it. When I said "how" I kinda meant.. Well, a more educated answer. (no offense) -Like, literally.. HOW. lol.
transformers is just a fun movie...a popcorn thing...i dont blame those kind of movies cause everyone has the right to enjoy what they like...my sister likes those..i like jim jarmusch films...so...its pretty fair..theres plenty of space for everyone :)
im gonna sound pretty stupid here but i didnt get transformers with all that editing shit on top of that i was too busy laughing at the scenes like that one when two robots are discussing in a shakespearean set in another planet,meanwhile i was distracted by the incredible bad lines-cliches plus i was waiting for megan to bang some dude..then someway in the middle i lost the plot..in a way i think transformers requires real focus..jaja,goodbye solo flows so good & is a better movie overall
@seandirector the simple answer my friend is that most people are stupid and only want to go and watch shit like transformers all the best films of the last 10 years ahve been non mainstream films like, the station agent, lost in translation and this little gem, i seen it in my local video store and am happy i got it. one of the best films i have seen in 2010
@hargohargo they showed it on bbc 2 nights ago, im gonna catch it up on the i player. it looks really good. they should make more films like this rather than the usual mass marketed c**p!!!! this kind of film is the modern gold of hollywood.
I was very concerned that this film was going to veer off course in the final third. But the director deftly negotiated some tricky points that a lesser talent would have royally screwed up. If you have the patience to watch a film that takes the time it requires to develop some wonderful characters and a very good story, see it. The acting is about as good as it gets. Congrats to Red West who give s the performance of his career. Indie filmmaking at a very high level!
Incredible film ! This is the best character study of 2 individuals I've ever seen in film. Direction is magnificent & you really feel that the actors aren't "acting". See it !!
This trailer does quite a bad job of capturing the actual essence of this movie: quiet, lonely beauty. The movie's not a feel-good, irreverent look at two shallow, disjointed characters motivated by the typical 'American Dream and American Dream Gone Bad" who overcome a banal cultural otherness.
It's actually a stark, morally ambiguous movie that describes a weird relationship with no clear motivation, at all.
THANK-YOU. I have seen this twice. This is NOT a happy feel good movie. It is about those still looking ahead and those who have had enough. This trailer is dead wrong for this movie. I have seen it twice.

they aren't making a movie about it you dumbshit, it's a backdrop for the film and is only relevant in the last 10 minutes of the film. go watch fight club again and don't bother with this film, i doubt you'd understand it and i don't say that in an elitist way, just in a 'how the fuck can you see a "crappy movie"' in this 2 minute trailer and completely miss the point. there's a reason it's critically hailed... as evidenced by the praise of the critics in this very trailer.
