Traffic

Tough to watch, thanks to the fact that this film is about total wretchedness and the cancerous evil that inhabits the soul of a nation (and that nation is not Mexico, kiddos). The extensive cast gives good performances, but Soderbergh's directorial gimmickry--tinted lighting, grainy textures, self-conscious editing--considerably detracts from the overall movie.
