Fifty Shades of Grazing

Profoundly beautiful and thoughtful film that seeks to address a number of deep philosophical issues in a comparatively brief running time - the boundary between person and animal, the importance of being in harmony with nature, and the dehumanising effect of living in modern western society.

Or, if you prefer, just another technically brilliant and very, very clever animation from Aardman, managing to tell a witty and satisfying story with virtually no dialogue required. Very funny and utterly charming at the same time (and it really does touch on the stuff I mentioned at the top of the page, too). I tell you, films like this are wasted on kids.

I enjoyed this book particularly the questions it raises about human nature and how we will behave and react in certain situations.

From the description it was easy to guess part of the stories big reveal, however the how we get there and what was going on with each person.

I can’t say I ever particularly warmed to Rory as a character but I’m not sure why. She just seemed quite whiny and overall just average.

I would have liked more of a look at the psychology behind the characters and why they acted the way they did. I also felt the ending was a bit rushed with trying to recap and finish every story.

Seeing this film is something you have to prepare for, it clocks in at just under 3 hours. You also have to be aware that it's a Malick film, and the dude does whatever he wants.
First, Austria is beautiful, the cinematography, scenery, everything, was gorgeous. I think that there were more scenes of nature, than the actors themselves. It's a long, rollicking journey through the simple story of a man who refused to swear an oath to Hitler in 1943.
Franz's journey was deeply religious and philosophical.
I really enjoyed the entire film, and it was worth almost 3 hours of my life, simply because of the beauty of it. It won't be everyone's thing.
