I knew that Cillian Murphy went above and beyond in this performance, but wow. A serious film that doesn't feel serious at all, appropriately matching the story's main character. Identity is a very important concept that has only become more topical in the ten years since this film was released. The feeling of belonging and feeling that you are valued may be the essential thing for survival in this world.
