Default Re: A History of Violence

Maybe. I saw this without hearing about any hype. I just saw a commercial, about a small town short order cook with "a history of violence" and thought it looked cool. After I left I felt something like, "Well that was a good little movie", emphasis on the little. I don't know the runtime (I think someone mentioned in the thread), but I felt the movie was short; it was about as close as a movie can come to being a vignette and still have a complete arc.

Spoiler: <font color="white">One other reason I liked it was that the "good" guy won, and his wife and son didn't have to get killed along the way.</font>
