Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews
Reptileenbu Did you people see the same film I saw?
KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
