SA:  I see your point.  I was leaning more towards his 'nice guy'.  I wasn't 
poking around in all his interviews.  He had an effort, but he wasn't very 
pressing as you point out.  I still cried at the end.  He did have this homely 
persona.  Especially when he talked about his father and son.  That's what hit 
me the most.  It touched me.  I felt something that is close to me.  I noticed 
an effort in him to fulfull dreams, not just his dreams but his families 
dreams.  I see the same happening to me in a way.  I hope to help do something 
so my son will not have to go through what I, my father, my father's father, 
and my father's father father, had to go through.  It's more ghostly.  It's not 
so much about changing society, but it is, in our little corner of society.  
It's about gaining enough space to live ones dreams on a very near and dear 
intimate level.


this ones for the family,
cheers,
SA
