I typically do not write commentary on movies.  While I do enjoy movies and have a respectable DVD collection, I do not usually go to movie theatres and critique movies. Recently, I had the occasion to see two very extraordinary movies.  Unlike many movie critics, I don’t actively look for things wrong with the movie …
