A History of Violence

So, I finally got to watch this movie, which, like a lot of movies, I've been meaning to see forever.

I guess I should probably try not to spoil things when I write about movies.

Anyway, the basic plot of the movie is guy has a family. Mob types start harassing his family because they at least say that he's some sort of mob type. People shoot things.

What was so distinctive about this movie was just the way that it was structured. Even though it was only 1.5 hours long, it somehow managed to build and resolve conflict at least 3 times over the course of the movie, with each of these conflicts having it's own feel.

Anyway, movie better executed than this post!
