I had to take the day off from work today. I wasn’t feeling very well and wasn’t really able to sleep last night and just needed a day to get my shit together.
Of course, that afforded me the time to watch TV (after doing my laundry). So, I watched With Honors again today. My god, I love that movie. Right now, I’m willing to go as far as to say that it’s my second favorite movie of all time (behind "Contact”… Don’t ask.. I’m a weirdo). Of course, being the enormous sap I am, I cried like a baby at the end when Monty reads Simon’s obituary.
I absolutely love stories of redemption. Redemption is what makes humanity so great. Redemption is what makes being human worthwhile. In 99% of cases on Earth, no matter what ill-advised decision you’ve made, there’s always a chance of at least SOME redemption.
