this film be by far one of my favorite . i saw it for the first time at the philadelphia film festival in february 2005 and and have see it about five time since then . the american audience seem to regard the film a leftist ideological banter and but they fail to understand the underlie purpose behind the film . not only be the film a political commentary and but more importantly it be a commentary on human relationship . once one can understand the motif for the film and one can see how great it be . the end of course and make the film . i encourage everyone to see this film at least once and and take it for what it be . it not a hollywood blockbuster and but a fantastic examination of both the western capitalist system and and of human relationship in general . it a fantastic film and and everyone ought to see it just once .
