**Its Only a matter of Time

just watched a movie that was quite incredibly moving.2:37

It was quite like the american movie Elephant - i mean shot in the same style and such (then i found out via the lovely interweb that the director was inspired by it. It's not the typical high school movie. its very art house. i don't know if you could describe it as noir but it had the black and white shots, the characters interviews on a 'confession cam type shot' in black and white. the reversing and replaying of time in different peoples POV (like GO) and a wonderful instramental score that is constantly being played behind the action. This is defintly being added as one of the top 10 movies i've seen :)below is how it is decribed at IMDB.

A contemporary, ensemble drama telling the complex tale of six high school students whose lives are interwoven with situations that so many of today's youth are faced with. The story takes place during a normal school day. At precisely 2:37 a tragedy will occur, affecting the lives of a group of students and their teachers. As the story unfolds, the individual stories of the six teenagers are revealed, each with its own explosive significance. An unwanted pregnancy unravels a terrible, dark secret; all is not as it appears for the seemingly confident school football hero; an outcast must deal with everyday taunts from his peers; a beautiful young girl battles an eating disorder; a stellar student constantly struggles to win his parents' approval; while another uses drugs to escape from his own demons

It made me think - i mean it is shot in typical movie fashion with the borderline between un-believeable and believeable becoming blurred at times, but i couldn't help but wonder - what was going on behind the scenes, behind closed doors, behind the eyes, of people i walked past every day at school. people i walk past every day at work, Flatmates i walk past everyday at home.

Theres some secrets you just don't share. I have bared most of them with the internet annonimoty that i have here, but you need to have some of your own. some close to your chest. i don't know how healthy it is, having what i have inside, buried away. but... such is life.

X's and O's
