Movies pertaining to this subject - "White Lightnin'" and "Mr.Nobody"
The former is a movie about a drug addicted man who grows up in an area where he will never have any hope of a future. His experience is so vivid and meaningful that you come to ask yourself, how can this be the vision of a drug addicted man. how can so much beauty, hate, lust, revenge, redemption, atonement, and love come from this hopeless drug addicted man.
The latter is an amazing more abstract movie about realities and not to divulge too much but my favorite qoute is "Everything can be anything else and still have just as much meaning"
Please Mr. Bennet consider them for the movies that you will show in class. they are truly amazing. The former is very graphic but it is necessary to show the hopelessness and general lunicy of the character, so keep an open mind.

Truly works of art in my opinion and I hope you will consider them for your class when you get a chance to watch them.
But, you haven't presented a convincing argument as to why I would want to show them. I was hoping for a film review, not a hyperlink.
ReplyDeleteto truly appreciate the movie you have to see it because i don't think i can do it justice. Nonetheless i did describe main points in the film that should have caught your interest. lol
ReplyDeletei would love to post a review but i will have to re-watch the movies and analyze them, but knowing im in junior year of highschool in tech time is precious so i would really rather analyze it in your class.
