The Mule is definitely a very good movie which shouldn't be missed. I am certainly glad it came my way. The director's sensitive and thought provoking handling of a difficult subject elicits strong and mixed emotions. It is impossible, after seeing it, to "look the other way", or remain unaffected. Though set in the Us-Mexican border, it goes way beyond that: it represents a worldwide reality. It certainly describes the reality of illegal immigration and abuse of power in my country (argentina), and many others. Tagliavini is to be congratulated on the choice of story, and the courage to uncompromisingly tackle such an uncomfortable topic, as well as for the movie in itself. I loved the acting, loved Stone in such a different from other roles, liked the secondary actors, the music, the relentless tension. I recommend it to everyone who see movies as more than mere entertainment.
