I watched the dvd for the first time, and it's my second viewing of the film, since I went to the movie theater 2 months ago. In between I've read a lot about it.
This time the movie played much better to me. The first time I thought it lagged for a while just before the final confrontation. I think the reason was that I didn't fully understand the characters' motivations. Now I think I do, at least enough not to get bored for a milisecond, because I feel with the characters every step of the way.
I guess this is the reason also for caring a lot more for Lureen, which the first time I didn't do. And I've found Ennis much more expressive than before.
Also it's very entertainning to look for all the visual and dialogue symmetries I've read about all this time.
