great script
i agree w/ everyone who thinks this film is a classic. the script is, and i dare say, flawless. The shots are tight and the lighting is unparalled for films in color (outside works of Kubrick and Hitchcock) Some people i talk to tend to think the movie is a little overrun with metaphors, and at times i slightly agree, but its complimented perfectly with comedic interlude. The luggage salesman, Joe's neurotic boss, the orange soda... The I'm losing my soul line is one of my favorites of ALL TIME, and Joe's scene on the ocean singing ethiopio cowboy is one of my all time favs of Tom Hanks. Fight the power all, this is a beautiful film.
