I like The Crossing Guard better, but this is a very good film. I wonder why Penn does not direct more. He commented a few years ago that he was quitting acting, and would only direct.

Which would be a great loss if he did quit acting.

  I enjoyed both films, as well as most of Penn's acting performances. I would like to see him lighten up a little-his comments toward Chris Rock at the Oscars were a little to much. It's supposed to be fun, isn't it?

    And some years ago he publicly criticized Nicolas Cage for doing commercial films when Cage was going through the action period in his career. Rightly or wrongly, he says what he thinks. He certainly makes for a great interview. I know Charlie Rose loves to interview him.
