I will use this blog to keep track of the movies I have seen. Let's start with Bend it Like Beckham, a hilarious comedy about how your dreams may be stifled by your environment... I also liked the characters, and the idea that women want to break out of their social molds-- particularly asian females.
Tonight we saw The Hurt Locker at LSC. War movies are not my favorite genre, and I was afraid to watch some parts of it. There were more than a handful of intense scenes that required me to shield my eyes. I thought the actor and drama was really riveting, the character development of the main character was fascinating. It is clear that sometimes, people get addicted to doing something they feel is important and they get a high from it. However, once you have a social responsibility, it seems like it can't end well if you give up your passion for a stable life. It was definitely an interesting movie, and shows that there are a lot of tough choices to be made for people who are exceptionally talented.
