Fearless

Bruce has been pretty busy lately so I will talk a little about Fearless and then he can chime in his thoughts when he gets a chance. I want to say I did like Fearless, I didnt find it to be a film that I loved but I did like it. Most importantly its a film that made me think about it days after I watched it and I always like that!  It was interesting to me to see the two main characters (Bridges and Perez) go two different ways in how they handled the aftermath of the crash yet they found a common bond between each other. I thought Jeff Bridges did a fantastic job playing Max, a man who seemed to have lots of fears now has none.It seemed as if Max was almost liberated in the way he used to be. I think everyone needs to find a happy middle ground on the way he became, dont let your fears control you but also embrace those friends and family around you.  To me the film represented how we can take life for granted and how "the daily grind" can become our way of life and that each moment we have on this earth to experience the great things of life and all the wonderful friends and family that we have, you just never know when your time is up. Peter Weir is an excellent director and if you all get the chance you should check out some of his other works which include Dead Poets Society, Witness, The Truman Show, and Master and Commander: The Far Side fo the World

I also wanted to say that I know not everyone has seen Fearless yet and I am doing my best to get the film to everyone, so I am extending the time to watch it and post into June so everyone can have a chance to see it, so if you havent seen it yet there is still time to do so.

Bruce should be posting soon about the movie Fearless and then we can all comment on his post.  JOE is on the clock for picking the movie for June!
