Monster’s Ball (4/5)

Solid film. While I personally appreciate the story of overcoming racism, I felt it was somewhat hard to swallow that a man raised as a racist, with no real problems with this, could turn over a new leaf so dramatically and so quickly. My heavens what will the neighbors think. Usually movies of racism either make me cry or anger me for hours. This movie did neither, and that is a good thing. I was not too clouded by emotion that I was unable to rationally appreciate the movie. Definitely a good movie to see. Halle Berry did a great job.
