The movie “Babel” is an interesting story – actually four stories – about how to really mess up your life. The American couple vacationing in Morocco are truly victims. The Moroccan boys should have been taught better by their father. The Mexican housekeeper should have done more research. The Japanese girl could have sought out better friends. But then we could all do better.
The movie is a bit – heck it’s a lot – tedious for a long time. I thought at least 20% could have been eliminated without losing any impact. I also hate it when there are time switches in a movie without clear identifiers… But hang in there. It gets very interesting the closer the ending comes... Perhaps we’ll learn to think things out more for ourselves.
