We watched Blindness tonight. It's a bleak bleak movie that had me sobbing but don't let that scare you away. I don't want to say too much about it other than I highly recommend it...I give it 9 out of 10 blind eyes.
I read this book about 10 years ago and it kicked me in my soul...it was that good. I was hesitant to see the movie because of liking the book so much and well, to say the movie was a kick to the soul would be an understatement. It was powerful...extremely and the acting was amazing. But I sobbed, too, and I'm imagining at the same things you did. I wondered if they were going to show those scenes in the movie or just infer them and so when they did show and (and so graphically), I just could hold the tears back. Sadly, I could see this entire scenario play out if this happened in real life...

ReplyDeleteI read the book too, and it made me too scared to see the movie. Those scenes were bad enough in my imagination!
