KMC Forums - Best films of the year so far

A film starring Uma Thurman, Evan Rachel Wood, and Eva Amurri(The daugher of Susan Surandon).

Fifteen years following a grisly high school shooting, Diana (Uma Thurman) is still haunted by this conundrum. An art history teacher living an idyllic life in the same town she grew up in, Diana has a caring husband in Paul (Brett Cullen) and a spirited young daughter in Emma (Gabrielle Brennan). Indeed, she would seem to have it all, but as the anniversary of the shooting approaches and preparations for a memorial begin, Diana can't help but ponder the decisions her teenage self (Evan Rachel Wood) made on that fateful day, and wonder what the future might have held for virtuous best buddy Maureen (Eva Amurri) if she were still here instead of her.

It's more pyschological in nature, than that explains. You don't see the entire shooting scene until the very end, it's rather a piece of the girls lives that is the basis of the picture. Critics thought it was convoluted, confusing, and melodramatic, but I found it to me none of those. I was never confused and thought it was a strong piece of work.
