Elephant - (Gus Van Sant;2003;USA) - ****
An observation of several teens in a high school, two of which are planning a horrible massacre.
As I said this is a painfully true film that not only works as a social commentary, but a film about pointless, innocent, deaths. The minimalist approach works brilliantly, along with the tracking shots that go with many characters. The best of 2003.
