))… Apoi demararea periplului initiatico-mistic prin lume (locatii exotice.. gen India).. nu isi are un rost semnificativ in film nici pe departe pt timpul acordat. Timp ce ar fi putut fi folosit cu succes intr-o mai buna dezvoltare a personajelor, ramase in pendulare… Doar Pitt e oarecum dezvoltat din punct de vedere al filmului… restulpersonajelor se pierd pe drum… iar disimularea povestii de dragoste (care nici ea nu e dezvoltata tehnic… ca scenariu), rapeste f mult din dramitismul , catarsisul de final, al filmului. Un film bun pe acest an… din multele vazute: “Brideshead Revisited”… desigur… si “The Wrestler”
