More than the movie, what impresses me most is your knowledge of things. I admire that bru. I wish I had enough patience to read more books but I guess I learn a lot from you and movies already.
Hope to see you soon.

it would be interesting to see what gibson had to say about the conquistadores and their missionaries.

The message being: Any form of tyranny is wrong.
