Some movies are exciting on first watch but by the time you've brushed the popcorn out of your teeth, you've ready forgotten most of the movie, and you don't really care.

Some movies are immediately satisfying and they are remembered as a good movie, a good flick.

Some rare movies leave you guessing and a bit unsatisfied upon the first watch. You leave the movie knowing that you just watched something powerful and significant, but you're struggling to get it into focus. The scenes keep replaying themselves in your head as you try to fully appreciate it. There were assumptions you made before starting tne movie, and also while watching, that you have a hard time letting go so that you can see what was actually there and not what you thought you'd see.

Eventually, you watch it again with those preconceived notions put away in your mind. You start to enjoy the characters in a way that you couldn't before. You start to realize that these characters, this story, reveal some deep truths, awaken deep primal emotions, that you simple don't ponder in your every day life.

Then you realize that the movie is a masterpiece. It touched a nerve in you that you didn't know was there, or don't pay attention to very often. It becomes like an old friend that you enjoy visiting again and again from time to time.

So, I hope you enjoy this masterpeice. Give it time to settle on you before you judge it.
