As much as I want to see Reservation Road – and boy do I love the cast — there is a part of me that is worried it might be just a little bit depressing. I haven’t yet read the book but the concept — two innocent families caught in a brain chilling tragedy that really, could happen to anyone — makes me just a bit anxious. After all, this is a movie with no monsters or crazy special affects. It’s a simple drama full of raw, pure emotion exploring the topics of revenge and forgiveness and just how far we, as humans are capable of going with each.

I think you are right. My mom wouldn’t let me see the film even though a had a small part in it. She saw it but we are going to wait to get the DVD so I can see my part and not the whole movie
