Tonight's my last film class for Monash and it's going to be a film which I had never seen before.
So I took the film home yesterday and woke up early to watch it. It was 70 minutes of suspense, panic and resignation. Elephant by Gus Van Sant was 'modelled' after the Columbine massacre in 1999. It plays up with the myths and assumptions surrounding the incidence with aesthetic artistry. At the end of it, I was shocked yet jaded. Disturbed but yet, progressive.
Urgh.
Movies messed up your head, people.
And that's a good thing.
P/S: Why don't they make Brutal Legend for Wii? Why?? Why???
