20799, What about the music?

I'm usually not a bit into that wierd folk stuff that that one lady (forgot her name) did for the soundtrack, but it was so fitting for the movie that it just got stuck in my head. That damn "Save Me" song, or whatever it was called, is haunting!And from the coke fiend chick's point of view, as well as just about every other character, it was brilliantly fitting! I loved all of the contradictions in that movie, too. The coke fiend and the police officer falling in love; the child stealing from the woman who tried to commit suicide at the same time that he's dialing 911 for help; The former quiz kid who is now a drunk trying to steal from his former employers. So many little things, so beautifully woven together! Or when they all sing that song! As I said before, haunting! God, that was such a good movie! 82!!!!! I've gotta go buy that! Peace, Love, and SOUL!!!
