FEELINGSSS!!! OOO FEEEEELLLIINNGGGGSSS!!!

So, in class we were talking about our feelings, not like that though. Reactions to films that make us ask, hey! why did I react like that. Why did i laugh at the guy in sweat pants watching Jane Fonda. Well, he did bring it on himself as soon as he put on those pants and turned on the TV. He was just like Fonda, he was presenting himself for everyone to laugh at him, or join him. The several changes of scenario brought the idea of people talking about her everywhere. But I found it awkward that they didn't much of the real video. To me it seemed like he made two extremes, what she was saying and what he was doing. People sometimes say that what some people say is too extreme for them, no its too crazy; like what she was quoted to say. The man in the film was also doing some extreme movements, who knew we looked like that working out.

Wow, since where on the subject of feelings, I really don't like cops; especially after the French film in Chicago. Those police had this, "I gonna get those muthaf!*&@ng kids." The peaceful demonstration could not have been broken up otherwise but that was still intense. Political films have to be different and have extreme images to get the point across. When was the last time you listened to your parents just talking telling what to do; no you had a demonstration of their power first. What made the film extreme, why did I feel that way. It was the staring eyes of the police, not leaving the camera and staring into the crowds eyes with that grimacing look on their face. It was the emotionless poster board faces that stared the audience down from every angle. It was the violence emerging from the group of fellow teens and students. ITS A JUST A MOVIE! I said BUT IT PISSES ME OFF ANYWAY!
