Not sure what has made me so "sensitized" over the past few years. I suspect that it may have something to do with having children.<br /><br />That said, sounds like a touching story.

The question already did that, so he should have come up with a sensible answer, such as yours, and I would have been more compelled to see it, instead of weeny-ing away.shrink on the couchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13271891110211081990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4511287927381998273.post-70337763653810824112009-05-27T00:45:20.256-05:002009-05-27T00:45:20.256-05:00I heard that FRESH AIR interview and felt the dire...I heard that FRESH AIR interview and felt the director could have made a case for his following that theme of pain...I mean, pain propels so much of what we all do, all through our lives, so why be so reluctant to talk about how emotional hurts can be assuaged by making one's body hurt?Jocelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03227519811818290510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4511287927381998273.post-30640873936940629232009-05-26T20:22:47.567-05:002009-05-26T20:22:47.567-05:00definitely will wait until... possibly never?

Veto saw it on a road trip and reported that he didn't like it so I've stayed away. Now I might feel compelled to rent it when he is away.
