purple rose of cairo

this movie confused me at first when watching it. it seemed to unreal to believe when the character comes out of the screen to be with the distressed woman. i do have to say, when he does leave, the other cast in the movie coming to an abrupt stop is very creative. I liked that idea; they were waiting for him to get back to the movie so they could carry on with their performance, almost as if they were performing a play, not a movie. It is a good movie for a hopeless romantic, because then they could relate to Cecilia , the distressed housewife in the film. This movie wasnt one of my favorites but it wasnt exactly murder to watch it; ive sat through worse. Another good thing is that it gives a different perspective about reality and lets you see a more creative side of film

freaks

upon watching the movie freaks i was a little dissapointed in the ending. although it was said to us before that there were unnessecary cuts made that couldnt be fixed or found for the movie; you can really tell that something was wrong. other then the ending i enjoyed watching the movie. it was interesting to see how those people were and to see how their dissabilities were real and how they still do normal things. i liked how they all ganged up on the madam at the end; it shows that even with dissabilities, they still have power; and i guess even more when they ban together.
I feel the movie sends out a strong message to its viewers to not be too quick to judge, which is something that many people should take into consideration. Also, to never underestimate anyone too!! the whole movie itself was very enjoyable!!
