city of god

we saw city of god last night. quite good, it was complex and filled with powerful images. the film was also technically amazing. there are very few movies where you notice good editing (as one friend has remarked to me "how can you say the editing was good when you don't see what was cut out"). it was pretty brutal, however, especially when you consider that it is based on a true story. i guess this finally shatters my dream of moving to a third world slum.
