Ghosts (2006)
if you like this film read - NOT ON THE LABEL
i saw this very recently and i implore everyone to see it.
this film is brilliant in it's illustration of the lives of people forced to take desperate measures.
the need for money being at the heart of the story, and money having no heart being part of the problem.
one question it raises is responsibility, and you can't help but think governments across the world must change the
economic and subsequent social situations that require these pyramids of suffering to occur.
i particularly enjoyed the depiction of English racists, very life-like disgusting ignorant and often ugly.
the greed greasing the wheels of exploitation on every level was thought provoking.
in all an absolute masterpiece
The Shipping News (2001)
try harder next time
i sat through this movie of my own volition as it came on the telly and i was in a prime position on the sofa to slob out as were, so through no one's fault than my own i suffered to the end, with i must admit, a mixture of glee and dissatisfaction.
the accents were the main focus of my attention as i currently have two functional ears and have heard Irish people speaking before, the characters were meant to be of Irish descent, but that to me is no excuse for what appeared to be a pretty good cast.
it was amusing and awful not only for the performances but the general pace, jumping in time with rough brush strokes pasting over events scant in detail while providing an aroma of cheese.
the style seemed some what scatter-logical and not in a good way, this may have been due to most characters lacking dimensions or credibility that would otherwise draw me in.
i like a film i can lose myself in, identify with the human traits expressed therein, or explore issues brought up by the story. the films i find most engaging are the ones that expose people in interesting ways, putting them in different contexts than you would meet day to day, people you hate or love or otherwise find difficult to judge
