Blue Ruin (2013)
This is no revenge movie
This is a gritty American movie. Excellent story of a family feud. Each character revealing themselves for better of for worse. A biblical tale of violence begets violence. This is a type of movie that becomes a learning experience. I think that is why i felt so anxious through the whole viewing experience. What occurs in this movie could happen to anyone. That is why it is so good. A shame more movies are not made like this.
We get a glimpse of American life in the rugged terrain of the Blue Ridge mountains. The tough and violent people it is capable of spawning. I sat at the edge of my seat wondering who would die next and how. I was finally relieved of my anxiety when the final secret is revealed and the last confrontation is done .
Hecho en México (2012)
Excellent Documentary
This documentary was powerful in its message delivered by Mexican contemporary and folkloric sounds. It portrays the Mexican psyche that was written by Octavio Paz's study of the Mexican in the book called "El Laberinto DE La Soledad". Artistically the documentary is spot on. Music is breathtaking and powerful. The images just blew me away , especially in HD format. Relax and play the music loud and u will receive the full benefits of the film. Listen to the beautiful sound of the Spanish and ancient Indian languages and u will see and hear a Mexico that the Gringo tourist will never hear on their visits to Acapulco and Cancun.
In the end, which i realized that in my travels of Mexico in the 70's , Mexico is a very violent and mystical place on earth.. I like it that way and at the end of this documentary i realized that it will never change. So what !
