Babel: Difference between revisions

----

{{quote|''"Technically, ''Babel'' may seem to be an example of the [[Idiot Plot]], in which at many points one word or sentence could clear everything up. But these characters are not idiots, and desperately want to utter that word or sentence, but are prevented because of (a) the language barrier, (b) their cultural assumptions, (c) the inability of others to comprehend what they are actually saying, and (d) how in that case everyone falls into an established script made of prejudice and misunderstanding... This is a film about people who do what we might do — if we were them."''|'''[[Roger Ebert]]''' }}
