One powerful film FULL SKULL BABY! FULL SKULL BABY! FULL SKULL BABY! FULL SKULL BABY! FULL SKULL BABY!
I must say that I wasn't so thrilled to see this film. I love war movies, but my idea of a good war movie is 'Troy' or 'Gladiator' you know, the real swords and sandles type stuff, but my wife was dieing to see this so we rented it and I was really taken back at how great it really was. Clocking in at about two and a half hours you never really feel like your wasting time. This film keeps you glued to the screen fromt he opening battle sequence to the closing supper. I never wanted it to end, it was that good, and the acting on all acounts was supperb, even to the 'so-small-their-hardly-their' roles like Giovani Rabisi or Natalie Portman, or even Jena Malone who's in the film for a record thirty seconds. I thought the most moving scene involves Jude Law and Natalie Portman and so as not to spoil anything about this movie I will leave it at that. The movie starts with Inman (Law) getting wounded at war. He is taken care of at one of the medical facilities for the soldiers where he recieves a letter from Ada (Kidman), his love from back home. In breif flashbacks we get to see how their love was started, how they met and how they had that 'love-at-first-sight' thing going on. The remainder of the movie is Inman's journey home to find Ada. Inman in affect went A-wall and now the army is looking to kill him. Ada is dealing with the death of her father and now having to fend for herself, somthign she was never taught to do. That's where the heart of the film, Ruby (Renee) comes in. She agrees to help Ada for room and board and it's her spunk that makes the movie fun, not just dramatic. The entire movie, each little side-story, every cinimatical moment is worth it's weight in gold. Watch this movie, it's splendidly done with OUTSTANDING performances by Law, Kidman, Renee, Portman and the entire supporting cast as well. See this movie!

Anthony Minghella directs this tale based on the best-selling book about wounded Civil War soldier Inman (Jude Law) making the long, treacherous journey to his home in Cold Mountain, N.C. Along the way, he thinks of his love, Ada (Nicole Kidman), who has fought for sanity and her father's farm's survival while Inman has been gone, even with a brave young drifter named Ruby (Renee Zellweger, in an Oscar-winning performance) there to lend a hand.
