Thought Provoking Metaphor

star55

This movie is a powerful metaphor that describes how when people grow up they lose their ideals. This movie takes that basic idea and stretches it to a disturbing and surreal level.

It is a tragic movie that makes one look at one's lack of compassion as one grows old.

It also mocks the socialite migration to the suburbs. In that sense, the tragedy is a victory to the urbanite who clings to public awareness of the social injustices of the "Upper Class Boys Club" manipulation of the health of society.
