it’s been a while since I’ve done my movie thing. Which movies/shows have made you cry? is that actually a thing that happens to you or are you unaffected by fiction?
I still haven't seen the movie. Like I said, I read the book and was emotinoally-and-intellectually moved quite a lot.
But I don't think I'd want to see it played out in front of me as a movie, though. :)
YET -- as a young teen, I read the novelization-book "Night of the Living Dead". It was a movie first and one of the screenwriters wrote / reworked the movie into a book/novel-form. A great book! I read it and a year-or-so later saw the movie -- it remains my favorite movie! A scene from it is my avatar on this site. :)
My point- - the book/plot is incredibly upsetting to me but I still love the movie! Ha! :)
You're kidding? I have pondered your avatar for years. My conclusion was it was an album cover and right this feeble moment (I'm showing my vunerable side on knowing the album cover and the artist and not sure if I'm putting them together correctly,) thought it was a Led Zepplin album cover?? Am I kind of right in the simularities?
"Ordinary People" - - it took me beyond tears -- as the ending credits rolled, I got up and left my friends still sitting there. I went outside the theater in the night darkness and just stood there. And breathed.
