I am going to my potentially new job as a Healthcare assistant's training session in Central London, I think that's pretty good and if I pass? Well, let me know how, no wait, I WILL let you know how well I do as it involves a few tests to see if I qualify. (That is, unless I get a ban over here for questioning morality in our humanity as well as various aspects of human sexuality and bring in Michel Foucault's philosophies into play here quoting why a "s*xual assa*lt is seen as worse than a punch in the face", and what's more bizarre, Foucault wasn't even necessarily thinking like of a deadly assault involving a punch on the face, or even an acid attack or say a hot iron to one's face like that scene with Jet Li in "Kiss of the Dragon" (2001) for example, or MAYBE he DID mean it, but he was just being say, philosophically curious about it, something most of us modern folks aren't that into - not that its a bad thing but anyways...)
By the way Stratego, given your excellent knowledge of movies and various themes in them (I remember how back on IMDb you responded to quite a lot of mine (when I was known as Zombie55) and others posts on IMDb.com on Thomas Vinterberg's movie "The Hunt" (2012)), may I ask, have you seen this one DOCUMENTARY, with actually a VERY SIMILAR name to the aforementioned movie, entitled "The Hunting Ground" (2015) by Kirby Dick, and what did you think of it, was it any good to you?
The director also made other docs including "Sick - The Life and Death of Bob Flanagan, Supermasochist" (1997) and a very similarly themed documentary albeit in a DIFFERENT environment ("Ground" was set on college campuses, this one is about a military) entitled "The Invisible War" (2009), and also "This Film Is Not Yet Rated" (2006) about American movie censorship, all of which I recommend by the way, but have you seen THG?
Also, do you think there is a reason that documentary also didn't raise the FOLLOWING question - why we cannot just KILL those bastards, yeah,
like in "I Spit on Your Grave" movies?
Or maybe HE DOES know but just doesn't FEEL the need to touch upon that issue, heck, maybe he thinks that it would raise another "The Hunt" (2012)-like movie scenario but in real life (remember how in that movie he was innocent but they still attacked him and whatnot) among the "The Hunting Ground" (2015)-one, no?
Inquiring minds kinda want to know.
Sorry to disappoint you, but I haven't seen any of those documentaries. I have seen Capturing the Friedmans, which seems a little bit more similar in theme to the movie The Hunt (Jagten). What I've read about it, The Hunting Ground does not seem very objective and honest in its presentation. Kind of like the documentary series about Steven Avery.

loved that opening to El Dorado
shareYep. It'll make an evening. The eyes well up, the lump forms in the throat, you rise up, get to attention & stand witness.
It doesn't make a big deal out of one of the cast creating the plates. Just a tiny credit, then word of mouth for the next 50 years & 100 more beyond that.

it can bring a tear to my eye.
shareIt certainly is!
Love this thread, all the angsty stuff is a right bummer.
Especially if you're a bear. 🐻
