A deeply religious black ex-con thwarts the suicide attempt of an asocial white college professor who tries to throw himself in front of an oncoming subway train, 'The Sunset Limited.' As the one attempts to connect on a rational, spiritual and emotional level, the other remains steadfast in his hard-earned despair. Locked in a philosophical debate, both passionately defend their personal credos and try to convert the other.

A grossly understated movie. The actors do a really incredible job, and the topics of their more or less ninety minutes long conversation are very, very thought provoking. You really need to watch this if you enjoy intellectual debate.

I could listen to these two men for hours. This 90 minutes were almost too short xD
