‘Gone Baby Gone’ is worth watching
Go see ‘Gone Baby Gone‘. It’s got good acting, some twists and good ol’ fashion moral ambiguity. The kind of ambiguity that was around before everything started feeling like a politically correct press release and is going to be around once again when we come to our senses. And nothing against PR departments and carefully crafted images but I happen to like the areas in between what we we are comfortable with: when we can ask questions of ourselves and not have ready answers we may learn something about ourselves and possibly others. I think of it like how Jefferson rationalized writing a constitution to protect the inalienable rights of citizens while sleeping with his slaves. Props to the Afflecks for making this movie, Ben direction, Casey lead; Morgan Freeman, Ed Harris, and a slew of other excellent authentic performances.
