Departures - A Beautiful Film

This is a profoundly moving film, and one that will make even the hardest of souls reach for the tissues. It has just come out in the UK. Please read this review: http://foreignfilms.suite101.com/article.cfm/departures_exploring_loss_and_transformation

I know I am not a great reviewer of film - this is my first ever - but I felt moved to write about it. It is an important film with an important message. We really need to be much nicer to each other. Life is short. Take some time out today and be nice to someone. Try and have a charitable thought for someone you really dislike.... I know, it's hard. If it was easy we'd all be doing it!
