The music was very moving and felt it was a requiem ~http://www.answers.com/topic/requiem and as I watched the pair looking into each other's eyes..and her attempt to spare Kong his inevitable death, I could feel the sorrow and anguish of helplessness and loss..they each experienced... and we identify with this wordless grief and inability to reach across ....even as their eyes were full of pain..and more importantly, understanding.

This is another one of those things the doc tells me not to do,...not get to emotional about anything. |
