Birth - Prologue Scene

i like the music, deep, powerful, if not a bit to eccentric

the name of the kid that is born is Sean Chris Treborn!! objections?, i think not

paul thomas anderson... check it out

An enchanting scene

Great movie :)

Mesmerizing. There is something so magical about this opening, the deceptively cheerful music at the beginning, like fluttering birds; that gorgeous - but ominous - long tracking shot, the camera hovering over him as he runs, like death is following him, waiting to strike. Then he enters a dark tunnel - the biggest cliché for a death scene imaginable- but such a perfect, inevitable, and oddly beautiful last image for this sequence. I loved this film.

An excellent film, infinitely watchable and notable for a few reasons, not the least of which being it's the last movie in which Ms. Kidman could use her entire face for expression.

Well, she still has her eyelids to work with...

She must stop with the lip thing...the rest is just fine.

I didn't know that, but it was a wonderful film wasn't it? I cried so much, it was beautiful

You know what I recommend? If you liked Birth, you might also like that new movie, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. Birth has been my favorite movie until I saw that film. Really, you should see it!
