had me feeling mixed emotions.... in a good way. It's been while a film made me feel soo attached to the characters. Eli for one... is just beautiful. Something about her eyes that the movie kept showing... And who can't feel Oskers sorrows? I don't know what it is... I actually just got done watching it and searched for a forum for this movie and made an account just to say this. I am definetly going to have to buy this movie. Maybe my all time favorite. Awsome movie!!!!
First time watching....

Hello and Welcome Twofaced.
Please come in.
Please come in.
I'll break open the story and tell you what is there. Then, like the others that have fallen out onto the sand, I will finish with it, and the wind will take it away.

Re: First time watching....
Welcome to the ranks of The Infected. Your story is familiar to each of us.
Your next task is to infect as many of those around you as possible. Become the vector for infection.

...the story derives a lot of its appeal from its sense of despair and a darkness in which the love of Eli and Oskar seems to shine with a strange and disturbing light.

It is amazing how this movie hits so many people emotionally.... that is truly the mark a "great" movie.... I think the only other movie I have ever seen that hit me this hard was It's A Wonderful Life.... or maybe On the Waterfront...
