Also I find the reuse of Zulu's theme very bizarre. The story and those performances carry it enough though to make it a decent film. <br /><br />Luke:<br /><br />Nothing else.

The character itself is probably flawed in itself, but I really don't care for Hudson's approach in the least. She randomly switches from a certain manic wonder to this somberness without eloquence or it seeming natural.
