Contrary to popular belief, there was another movie playing in town besides "Transformers".It was "A Mighty Heart", the kind of intelligent, wellmade movie that in the 1970's would have played in first run, mainstream theaters but now only plays at Fine Arts. So thousands miss out on seeing a thought provoking movie. Angelina Jolie plays Marianne Pearl, the wife of Daniel Pearl, a journalist kidnapped in Pakistan. The movie is shot documentary style and there are moments in which you forget you are watching a movie and beleive you are watching the actual thing. It reminds me of "United 93", although that film was superior. The movie has suspense (althogh we know the final outcome and it is entertaining.
Try to catch it. And yes, Angelina Jolie is excellent in it.
