10/19/2006: "violence in movies"
I don't know about you, but my tolerance for violence in films just isn't what it used to be. Two days ago I saw The Departed, a Scorcese mob film about a cop infiltrating the mob and a mobster infultrating the police. While I think it was well made and the acting was good, it was so violent I wished I hadn't seen it. I don't know how many shots their were of someone getting shot in the head and us seeing it and the blood splattering out. I really don't this sort of thing is good for me to watch, maybe for no one. I suppose it wasn't good for me to watch as a kid either
