That was awesome. Recently Sean Penn is one of my favourite actors.
This time I saw it with English subtitles sometimes, because there were a lot of whispers. For me, it's a little difficult to catch whispers correctly, so I sometimes turn English subtitles on.
About the ending of this film, I first thought a little unsatisfied, but actually after all, I changed my mind. There were three boys, they were friends and played hockey together. But someday something happened. Then maybe about twenty years later, all of them were involved in an incident. Jimmy (Sean Penn) lost one of his daughter, she was murdered, and Sean (Kevin Bacon) appears as a detective, then some reason, Dave (Tim Robbins) went back to his place with covered with a lot of blood on the day when she was murdered. Dave wanted to disappear from this world I guess, because of his experience of his youth, also he didn't want to think about it, and Jimmy also wanted to wipe his memory but just he kept carrying them, whilst Sean got a difficulty with his wife because of his busyness. Anyway I enjoyed this film a lot.
