After seeing this one, wow, totally agree with the praise charlize theron has been getting. Phenomenal performance and will prolly walk away with the oscar too. I didn't get to see the court tv footage of the trial and their recount of events, but the movie was sufficiently distrubing for me. kinda the way pulp fiction gave me a visceral reaction in the stomach was what monster did for the emotions. meaning a much stronger reaction for me at least.

i didn't think they tried to rationalize her behaviors, explain them away, give a reason really, but try and give an answer to why. why it all happenned. that's what was most disturbing of it all i thought.

definitely worth checking out, great movie to make you think.

peace
