Brilliant! Hard to be a real man in a dog-eat-dog society!, 7 September 2004
Author: cjmj from Australia

In a world that screams at men to 'grow up', 'act your age', 'be responsible' comes this insightful little clip that challenges the way we perceive each other (as men) and breaks through the 'calloused' exteriors required in order for men to survive.... and of course, when this happens - there's always others around who are more than happy to shoot you down.

Great film - brilliantly acted. Billy Bob was just fine, as too his skipping little partner!

Many deep and profound levels to this little ripper - only the discerning and contemplative types would probably get it though. I was moved - humorous, playful, tragic...

A rare classic in a sea of tired-old plots and ridiculous CGI experiments. Well worth the watch.
