So did he convey that? Because that was why he did the film. Did he communicate what he wanted to say? Did we feel that?

I did. And thanks for looking up that info on the film's creator. That and your prior comments were pretty much how I saw it, or felt it subconsciously. Haven't picked up the DVD yet, I just checked and it has apparently been released. Be delighted to see it again, I always pick up more things on the second viewing. Wanted to see it again in the theater, but the opportunity didn't come through.
