Macrocosm Los Angeles
Nothing’s melted in Paul Haggis’ pot
May 05, 2005
Screenwriter Paul Haggis (Million Dollar Baby) makes an impressive directorial debut with a telescoping deliberation on American race prejudices as viewed through a lens of day-to-day life in the melting pot of Los Angeles. Haggis rivals Robert Altman's nimble ability to balance numerous characters across a broad narrative canvas.
