This film was one of the more interesting films of the semester. i have never seen angels depicted in this manner before in any other film. I found it ironic that the angels arrived at the beginning of the movie when the town was opening the damn that was forcing hundreds of people to move from land the had been on for generations. And also that they left as soon as the last occupant of the land was checked off as vacated.
One of the angels had the distinct ability to receive and write down the word of god. And another had special hands so that he could examine certain items and tell many things about it. These angels were definitely far from the normal white fluffy wings and halos depicted in many stories. This movie also was similar with wings of desire in the idea that angels were not perfect and longed for something they did not have rather than be contempt with their life.
