the place beyond the pines

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1817273/

the place beyond the pines is one of those movies where you definitely need to *not* watch the trailer.  if you had watched the trailer, you would probably be expecting a ryan gosling movie, but then you would be sad.  so very very sad.  you would be sad because ryan gosling dies like 40 minutes into the movie and then it quite suddenly transforms from a ryan gosling movie into a bradley cooper movie.  not cool.

but ok, maybe you do not mind bradley cooper, in which case who are you?  do you exist?  i bet you have watched all of the hangover movies.  you are everything that is wrong with this world.  anyway, whoever you are, you are only going to be happy for another 50 minutes, at which time bradley cooper becomes largely irrelevant and it transforms into a movie about some kids.

there was some symbolism in there or something, but it was not really that interesting.

the place beyond the pines gets two pines.
