Leatherface (2017)
i enjoyed the movie as a movie but it has zero ties to TCM
Okay, this movie was well done, it was fun and pretty exciting, the story was cool--- but it should not be called leatherface. because it HAS ZERO connections to texas chainsaw or leatherface... these charactors have aready had a backstory ex; jed was an unusual kinda inbred looking boy in the 2003 which took place in the late 60s early 70s... btu yet hes a teen / grown man in the 50s?? come on folks....
and leather-face, already had his back story told in the that he was born with some facial differences, in the 2006 film to a heavyset mother on the floor of a slaughterhouse in like the late 30s early 40s.., and he worked at said slaughterhouse as a teen and adult, until it went out of business in the late 60s... so these back stories have already been told, and also the time lines is all wrong for this latest movie, i am very disappointed because i think its misleading to say its part of the TCM series... no, its not, im sorry, it has no ties..... BUT that aside, it isa good movie and it is very entertaining, but it should be billed and promoted as a separate horror thriller movie, but it is by no means a prequel or has any real ties to the texas chainsaw / leather-face stories...it just doesnt
Profoundly Normal (2003)
a truth about how far we've come for peole with developmental disabilities
great movie it gave a rare insight to give people examples of how things were and how far we've come.....i also want to comment that there is a huge difference in developmental, or mental DISABILITY and mental illness........while there are people who have both. a mental or developmental disability is not an illness...its a disability, in fact it is the opposite of illness... but regardless of disability or illness or both people who were ''different;; were thought to be ''sick or ill' and were shut away not respected or wanted or accepted, luckily today with civil rights and ,more and more education for all coming up.. people with disabilities also people with mental health issues are advocating and being advocated for, and gaining equality, inclusion, acceptance, and support and respect. and we want to always continue to move forward and learn from our mistakes and treat people the way we want to be treated
