Anyone ever seen this movie? I love the music from it (samuel barber's adagio for strings) but ive only seen like 35 minutes of it


[size=14]HUGE SPOILER ALERT![/size]














[size=14]SUCK A POLAR BEAR'S FUNKY ASS![/size]












(I saw the part where Willem Dafoe is shot by Tom Berenger, and the whole
village bullshit)




















[size=14]END OF SPOILER ALERT[/size]

I mean...from what i saw, sh*t was powerful. Has anyone seen the movie in its entirety?

I want to see it. I know a lot of people think it's in poor taste and it's too soon, but I also think it's important to remember how that sh*t made us feel. I know none of us around that day will ever forget it, but time dulls the senses, and this should be rehashed. From the reports i've heard, the familes of the victims are very much supporting the release. I'll put myself through that to remember them.

No, but I've read books about him, and nothing of the stuff that happened in the movie is in the books. Also, they had to alter a lot of things so they could get the song rights, because they belong to Pamela Courson's (Jim's girlfriend) parents, and they didn't want her to look bad.

Natural Born Killers is crap. JFK was ridiculous..the Theory of Relativity is about the only theory he didn't include.
