house of sand and fog
despite the truly wretched and unnecessary music, a good film. a tragedy no less, in the classical sense. except for the tragic hero. a clash of claims to ownership framed in mutually exclusive arguments. the hubris comes from the colonel. the outcome is jolting. a hollywood film, though. but a good one.
