I find great affinity and strength in Darrel Manson's review summation of House of Sand and Fog,

But despite the seeming pessimism, tragedy has value in demonstrating the depths we can fall to if we allow fate and flaws to determine matters. Each time those involved failed to do what was right or proper or acted only for themselves, it made it harder to make things work out. Eventually it leads to ruin for all involved.

Don't be surprised to hear me repeat this one a few times!
