Movie Review: The House of Sand and Fog

Excellent movie, highly recommended. Explores the complex relations behind a simple conflict over property, showing how the oft demonized bourgeois is not so evil in all cases, and the array of deeply agonizing psychological conflicts forming the background of what may appear as simple, deplorable greed from outside. Reminded me of the Human Stain, starring Anthony Hopkins, which similarly showed a stunning contrast between a comfortable appearance and a deeply agonizing personal history underlying.
