If that is your cup of tea, go for it, but as I said previously, knowing that stuff goes on in real life is more than enough for me. I simply don't want to subject myself to it voluntarily... speaking of, another one is any movie that focuses on violence towards women... just not interested in seeing that. I saw enough of that in the short time I was in law enforcement that I don't want to see it on the big screen (or the small screen)... so, no Lifetime channel for me!
I'd like to make clear, these themes in and of themselves are not "my cup of tea". But I'm an adult and able to handle adult subject matter if I feel they are not gratuitous, in context and much more importantly part of a well made interesting film I'm happy to explore them.
I'm a person that feels art (as a medium) should be challenging, should make us ask questions of ourselves and push the bounderies of societal complacency. Otherwise what is the point?
Is it all just mindless entertainment? Should it all just be the eqivalent of fast food for the brain?
