With nothing new worth seeing this weekend I took the chance to see a movie that came out a couple weeks ago: The Brave One.
This was a very good film that looks into what someone would do when their lives are taken from their preseption of the world and can never look at it the same way agian. Jodie Foster plays a radio talk show host that looks for the the hidden bueaty of New York by walking around town and taping the sounds of the city. Her live is changed when she and her boyfriend are attacked by street thugs and she is almost beaten to death while her boyfriend died and the thugs took their dog. After a couple months of rehab she tries differnt way to put her life back together from going back to work buying a gun to feel safe to helping people she sees in trouble.
What I really like is the film is unapologetic in its veiw and Foster's charater does back down. So may films would take this theme to the end and the main charaters will have a change of heart and the movie just fizzles out.
