Atonement was a very good movie. At first I had a hard time figuring out what exactly was going one, but as I continued watching I caught on. It almost breaks your heart what one person's jealousy can do to ruin another person's life forever. It makes you stop and think about things you have done in your own life and/or things you might do and rethink your motives. It is very well acted and I think worth seeing. It is not for young people. It is definitely an adult movie, not only because of the nuditiy, but because of the depth of the thinking.
