KICK! HIT! GOAL!!!.

despite the change OVERCOMING me, current news affairs cannot cannot, be neglected.
Definition: development of an increasingly integrated global economy marked especially by free trade, free flow of capital, and the tapping of cheaper foreign labor markets.

The leaders of the world's most industrialised countries are meeting in Genoa to debate global economic, political and social issues.

The G8 leaders are discussing global poverty and new efforts to liberalise world trade, which they say is the best way to overcome poverty.

But the tens of thousands of protesters who are in Genoa disagree. They argue that globalisation just serves the interests of multinational corporations and the wealthy to the detriment of poorer nations.

Is it a good thing? or Is it bad?

I suppose it just widened the income gap between the rich and the poor.

lazy to elaborate, let me go on to the next point,

BABEL

very literature-like m18 movie. gosh

It shows us different people from different cultures, but the reason they are sad is the same.
The lack of love. Mishandling of it.

I think as human beings, what makes us happy is very different; it depends on cultures or races. What makes us sad and miserable is exactly what we share, and that thing is basically the impossibility of love, the impossibility to be touched by love, the impossibility to touch with love and express it. That is one of the most painful things that every human being has experienced, as well as feeling vulnerable to love. I think those two things are the most tragic things that bring us together. This film and the connections to the characters is about that, all of them on different levels, no matter which culture, no matter which country, religion, age, social class . . . All of these people are at an inability to express themselves, with their husbands, with their wives, with their kids. When you cannot be touched by words, and when you cannot touch people with words, then the body becomes a weapon, an invitation, and that is what is tremendous about the story. I feel that you saw a story about human beings and not about Moroccans, Mexicans, or Americans."

Babel is the kind of movie that you will want to see again. Repeated viewings give you a chance to explore the small moments of light and love and kindness and compassion that pass by in a flash. Also pay attention to both the flaws and the inner reserves of resiliency that are evident in these characters as they push against settings where they feel uncomfortable and stressed out.

Love is celebrated in all the world's religions as the most powerful and poignant emotion. Babel will give you access to the many shades of love as it shows what happens when it is ignored, squandered, or annihilated by anger, fear, hatred, and violence.
