When Liam Neeson loses the plot realising he could have saved more people, how could that not be sad? Apparently the girl in red was Spielberg's decision, the only color in the film apart from the Shabbat candles. She symbolises the death of innocence, and also may refer to the red flags used by the Jews in pleading for help from the Allies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post fittobethaied Posted May 10, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 10, 2021 After having lived in Thailand for 11 years and watched a movie on my computer each night, just within the past 6 months I have noticed that I have to be very careful about the kind of movies I watch. If they are highly emotional, violent, vulgar, scary or stressful to watch in any way, I have to turn them off. I develop severe anxiety and my pulse and blood pressure surges. These movies go deep into your spirit and affect your subconscious mind, and this will trigger depression, anxiety, fear and sleepless nights. Be very careful what you put into your spirit! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fun fact; Kevin Spacey didn't get a mention in the opening credits. Once you see Pitt and Freeman it would then be obvious who the killer was going to be.

Sorry, but I felt so little empathy for Di Caprio character that when he died I didn't care, and when she threw a gem worth a fortune away I just thought what a waste- if she didn't want it she could have sold it and given the money to charity. However, I do understand that a lot of people did feel sad at the end. To each their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also the one where the hero gets kidnapped and put in a prison because he insulted a rich guy. At the end he cuts his own tongue out. Loads of Asian films are very sad.
