“I used to think that men went gray because they had stressful jobs with stressful decisions to make. Now, I think it happens when men start to feel in their bones that the great moments of their lives... might not turn out to be quite as great as they'd always hoped.”
Such an underrated movie, I really don’t see the hate for this. Brad Pitt gives a great performance and this was such a unique interesting look into the war in Afghanistan.
