foremost, I just want to express that I am in no right as of the moment to make this blog post because I seriously have lots of things to do still.... but hey, it's been a long time... so might as well spare a little time....
so what's in store for this blog post??? just some little things I want to discuss....
earlier we were made to watch the american indie film Requiem for a Dream... [P.S.. no visuals for this one...]
so what was this movie all about? it's a film about inter-related people who in their own ways got hooked up and addicted to drugs, to say the least.
so whats so nice about this movie?? well I have to agree with our teacher.... that this is by far one of the best movies ever made... [well sorry classmates who might go against this view]....
well actually speaking... there's nothing nice with it; that is if you are a fan of feel good movies..... because the plot itself showed nothing nice.... but I say... why don't you take a little time and try to look throught the reality of it.... what it showed us is the brave truth..... [right?]
so yeah, the realism in the story was one of the things that I loved about it.... how it tells us that this little obsession brought about those weird drugs can take our lives to something we can never EVER imagine....like EVER....[well, explains why the title goes that way...... my teacher said so..]
and yes I want to reiterate what my teacher said about all the elements of the film mixed with each other that they made the film really really effective.....
I want to compliment the shots + the editing.... with a movie having this theme.... those close ups shots and spil screens were really effective.... it's so effective that you can even take out the music scoring and still feel what you're supposed to be feeling... ahahah [okay now this one goes against what teacher said earlier..kekeke]
the plot was really disturbing actually... well I wanna use the word "depressing" for that one.... but yeah, that's what the movie makers wants us to feel..... feel worst after the movie.... or feel pitty about the characters... and even, feel the misfortunes drugs can do to our lives....
I know at one pont it's not the kind of movie that I would call good, or the best wharein I can go kneeling down before the screen or clap my hands for it (to say the truth it's not my ind of thing..).... but I can testify with all my heart this is a deabak one.... I even went silent and mind wandering for 10mins after thae film... wel probably taken aback.... or just my mind was trying to absorb it.... ahahhaha [so yeah, I'm one of the few in the class that feels like this...]
now, it you ask me if I would invite you all to watch it..... hmmmmmmm, if you want a movie to lighten your day or just something you can relax on... well this one is definately not for you.... but if you want a movie that you would want to learn something on..... or just kill you boredom, or wake you up.... now in that case, I will strongly recomend you to watch this....
okay.... I've said what I wanna say..... so I'm out.....
