Raw emotions and fabulous acting from Natalie Portman
This was pretty tragic, the inside story of the wife who has to witness her husband being assassinated in front of her eyes. This was about Jackie Kennedy, and the grief she felt following John F. Kennedy's death. Natalie Portman was once again magnificent, showing the raw emotion and confusion felt being a First Lady in mourning. And while there's not much else to the story, it's all about bereavement which is complex enough.

Rolling Stone's 75th greatest album of all time
Great powerful soul album, mainly Brown remembering how proud he was of his father's successful shopping trip for a new satchel. Superb music and great raw vocals.

"This one just floored me. So vivid, so alive. So blunt. I thought I had a raw deal as a kid and then I read this and realized it could have been a lot worse."

End of an era

The end of my childhood came when I finished this book. So many emotions left me raw and broken. First time I cried while reading a book.

Movie Favorite

"Love, according to this film, is close to death. Theresa Russell is raw and beautiful, and the film is full of symbols, of heartaches, of obsessions—Harvey Keitel’s, Art Garfunkel’s. Like a Schiele painting, which is high praise."

Too intense for most people (0 more)
I loved it. Everyone else hated it.
A dark, modern, American twist on Alice's wonderland. This really disturbing, cringe inducing stuff coupled with bizarre charm is part of Gilliam's gift, and I would argue this stands up to his most famous work. Though this is definitely a little smaller in stature than Brazil, it has it's own elements of dystopia- albeit on a more personal level- and hits a little closer to raw emotion. Not for the faint of heart.
