Five Stars isn't enough. I've seen this movie so many times

courageous man, and this movie proved so. 1,000,000+ stars.

community. Cristy, by default, was born to be alone and
with this aloneness, he was with the world. The film did
not lean on false heroics, it portrayed Cristy as a man at
onc capable of beauty and ugliness which is the well spring
of creation itself. It turns out that God and Satan
