...it’s a strange movie, isn’t it because in parts it more has the lightness of Mean Girls but it’s a very, very dark movie and actually really disturbing...but it’s quite like something we touched on with American Psycho, in that I couldn’t personally feel any connection to him or any of his victims on any level...but with Heathers...?...these aren’t people of great character and they all have very bullying behaviour and caused so much misery..(...not that, that justifies killing them...)...but it’s where it starts to relate to how they make people feel and how they outcast them etc...
...but it has to be said that JD is a complete and total psychopath killing some quite unpleasant people...that line he said/similar words to...’they would have only gone on to date rape etc...and we really felt that, didn’t we...that, that would happen..?..(...anyways we still don’t condone murder...)...and obviously he was going to blow up the whole school and kill everyone, regardless of who they were so he can’t criticise...so a lighter movie in points but an extremely dark character study...
...I loved it though because of those layers...and some great quotes.....I can see Niamh and Bollo, why so many quotes have stuck with you both...I won’t quote any because you know them...but watching it made me think...we should make it a thing that after every movie watch..?..let’s go get a slushie ...?...I really don’t know why I haven’t watched it before now but a great recommendation.....
