and isn't it horribly sad, Ammi? :bawling: I don't even want to think about it again, I remember I watched it on a Sunday at night and I needed to wake up early in the morning on Monday but I couldn't sleep because I was too scared to dream about it. :"(


Spoiler:

yes, his parents are truly amazing people, I remember there was a point in the movie that I thought, well this is absolutely heartbreaking and this is officially the saddest doc I've ever watched but at the time I thought that his parents having to deal with that monster on a daily basis was "it" but when we get to find out that she actually killed Zac, omg it's just too revolting

..I don't think she wanted anyone to have any place in the life of her 'obsessions'..I won't call it love because love wouldn't do the things she did..but she kept Andrew from his friends and parents until she realised that she couldn't keep his love, then she killed him so that no one else could love him..then she did the same with his son, so that the people who truly loved him, his grandparents couldn't have him and be happy...I wanted to see some small bit of her that was good in some way but, even after she killed Andrew..but there was nothing there, she was completely unlikeable and I do think that he was right..she was evil, cold and incapable of love or compassion

yeah, the most worrying part is that she didn't even go to jail like, she wasn't even considered a treat by authorities to society after having killed her husband. D:

Man with a movie camera
Quote:

This amazing film made in 1929 is a silent masterpiece made by Dziga Vertov. Vertov believed that the camera should capture life as it is really lived, not as the maker of the film believed it should be. Nothing in this movie is staged and no narrative to be followed. Just a man with a movie camera. Vertov tried to make the first trans-cultural film by showing the deeply we are intertwined with machine, that we are part of a larger machine and that machines are extensions of ourselves. It depicts an age where the human anthill began to construct their large cities. Startlingly self-reflexive, this documentary can not but make you feel part of some bigger order and chaos, life and death, progress and decay.

Triumph of the Will (German: Triumph des Willens) is a propaganda film made by Leni Riefenstahl. It chronicles the 1934 Nazi Party Congress in Nuremberg, which was attended by more than 700,000 Nazi supporters. The film contains excerpts from speeches given by various Nazi leaders at the Congress, including portions of speeches by Adolf Hitler, interspersed with footage of massed party members. Hitler commissioned the film and served as an unofficial executive producer; his name appears in the opening titles. The overriding theme of the film is the return of Germany as a great power, with Hitler as the True German Leader who will bring glory to the nation.

Triumph of the Will was released in 1935 and rapidly became one of the best-known examples of propaganda in film history. Riefenstahl's techniques, such as moving cameras, the use of long focus lenses to create a distorted perspective, aerial photography, and revolutionary approach to the use of music and cinematography, have earned Triumph recognition as one of the greatest films in history. Riefenstahl won several awards, not only in Germany but also in the United States, France, Sweden, and other countries. The film was popular in the Third Reich and elsewhere, and has continued to influence movies, documentaries, and commercials to this day.

Dreams of a life:
Zawe Ashton (C4's Fresh Meat) takes the lead role in this drama-documentary, director Carol Morley's quest to discover the truth about the life of a vivacious, intelligent woman, and how she came to be so tragically forgotten.

Nobody noticed when 38-year-old Joyce Vincent died in her bedsit above a shopping mall in north London in 2003. When her remains were discovered three years later, her heating and her television were still on. Newspaper reports offered few details of Joyce's life - not even a photograph.

Morley places adverts in newspapers, on the internet and on the side of a London taxi, and the responses lead her to Joyce's former friends, lovers and colleagues. Their testimonies, together with re-imagined scenes from Joyce's life form a multi-layered portrait of the deceased woman, and an insight into the world she inhabited.
