So I started watching a movie about a prison riot in Spain. It’s a male prison, so I figured the movie would be safe for me to watch.
And, obviously, one of the men caught up in the riot just had to have a heavily pregnant wife who in the course of the movie lost the baby. And then she died. And the husband tried to commit suicide.
What’s worse, the entire point of the movie is to show somebody who does his absolute best and still ends up losing everything for no particular reason.
This was not a helpful thing to watch.
I guess I will be going back to sci-fi.
To those who are less sensitive to such things than I am at the moment, I highly recommend the movie Cell 211. Just imagine what Hollywood would have done with this plot and shudder.
