Road to Perdition - 6

This film take the discussion of the evil and good that reside in each of us and shows how that develops in the main characters, Hitman Father, Michael Sullivan and his 12 year old son. It also includes the theme of revenge and justice. I like the narration by the son at the end of the movie where he has come through these sad and tragic six weeks, to learn that the question of good and evil is not as simple as most make it out to be. I think the question we can ask ourselves is, how has our life shaped our motivations for both good action as well as evil?
(The cinematography and music are beautiful in this film)
