Gethsemane

Here are some reasons to why you should not 'read' this post:

1. It will completely spoil a movie for you if you haven't already watched it, and I really would not want that to happen. So if you haven't watched Se7en, and you want to, you probably shouldn't continue 'reading' this post.

2. The clips are dark and disturbing.

3. If you are sensitive to swear words, every third word that Brad Pitt's character utters is a swear word.

Now, having washed my hands clean of any guilt of making you watch it, here's the clip:



You get the intensity right? You get the struggle. You feel the dementedness. And then, there is a part of you, that keeps repeating in your head: "Ok, don't pull the trigger. DO NOT PULL THE TRIGGER" and yet when it is pulled there is a there is no anger, but a resignation of our fallenness. Somewhere you go back heavy hearted saying, "I know. You are human. It's ok. I would do the same."

"And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly; and his sweat became like great drops of blood falling down to the ground." - Luke 22 : 44

Gethsemane was intense too.

And, He did what I would not do. He stood up, crushed the head of the serpent, and went to the cross.

That is why I worship Him.

Swades wali milegi?

This post is for all the friends, aunties, mom and sisters I have who are looking out to set me up -  Oh and yes, for the girls who would want me to get interested in them. ;)

I guess no movie character has come so close to having a personality that I would flat-out fall for as Geeta does.  

The following video does not give a very good idea about the character - you have to see the movie, but I thought I'll add it nonetheless. 

Into the west

Dhobi Ghat

Remember The Titans

Someday, when you get the time and if you haven't already, watch the movie.

Spoiler!

Do you believe?

Harry Potter - The deathly hallows

Can't wait to watch it. 

A dozen reasons to why I like watching movies in the cinema halls

1. They are entertaining, and I like being entertained.

2. Going to the cinema hall is expensive in terms of time and money. I think entertainment should come at a reasonable cost.

3. Unlike television, this environment is controlled. You generally don't switch to another channel/movie when one is done.

4. Talking about movies is an excellent way to engage people in conversations... especially with people you meet the first time, like on an air plane. What movies people like, tells me a lot about who they are.

5. Rotten tomatoes! You get a decent idea about what to expect.

6. Censor ratings - they help you sift.

7. Putting our butts to rest and being overawed by something spectacular is what we will be doing in Heaven. If not a lot, atleast a small part of why we like watching moviesand why movies of a certain kinda re made is that we are spiritual beings. (Or, I would say that that fact that we like movies, stories, fiction shows us that we are spiritual.). Some movies remind me of that. They make me long for the better.

8. It gives me a good picture of where the world is at, what it finds exciting. It helps, kinda like reading a newspaper.

9. Most movies ( or the movies I tend to watch) have a message. I like it when genuine people have a genuine message to give. Even I have one.

10. Daily living tends to get me focussed on really small things... about me and my life and how things are not working out. Movies can get me focussed on the larger picture. I like that.

11. Somewhere, at the back of my head, the reason I watch movies is that when I meet someone like me who genuinely likes movies/stories I can take the joy in agreeing with him and then genuinely say,  "Jesus Christ is so much better".

12 Because my father and my grandfather likes / liked watching movies. I think I got this from them.
