I also revisited "Amistad" after "Lincoln," and see that it is worthier than its status as a dismissed sentimental period piece. Though there are still elements that bug me "Give us free" and the John Williams accompaniment to Adams' final arguments work, but work on me in a way that makes me embarrassed , you're on the money in linking it with "Lincoln," particularly with the "vagaries of legal minutia" element. The set pieces are repeatedly spectacular. Most fascinating for me is the way its global perspective follows multiple empires in various stages of development converging over the Amistad issue, anticipating the invisible geopolitical boundaries in "Munich"'s secret wars.
Schindler's List and Amistad are the films I show to my cynical high school seniors. Every single student watches and is moved by both.
One of Mr. Spielberg's gifts is his use of humor, even in these, two of the most intense films I know of. I used to think he gives us a belly laugh, only to rip out our hearts. But, now I think he's balancing. He's such a master at balance in other film elements that I think the humor before heart-ripping is a balance, too.
My ex-husband and I had always managed to stay friendly after our divorce in February But I always wanted to get back together with him, All it took was a visit to this spell casters website last December, because my dream was to start a new year with my husband, and live happily with him..
This spell caster requested a specific love spell for me and my husband, and I accepted it. And this powerful spell caster began to work his magic. And 48 hours after this spell caster worked for me, my husband called me back for us to be together again, and he was remorseful for all his wrong deeds. This is nothing short of a miracle.
