in entertainment. this past weekend i watched the movie juno. its about a teenage pregnant girl who discovers love through the disappointment of a "perfect couple" who is suppose to adopt her baby. the movie reveals that whether you are from an obvious messed up family or superficially pretty family, we all have our issues.
I have discovered this is the storyline that usually touches my heart whether i can directly relate to it or not. the reality of the pain that occurs inside our homes is something we don't talk about. however, i love to be reminded by the media that everyone has their troubles whether their rich, poor, smart, dumb, pretty or ugly. it makes me feel normal.
other movies such as little miss sunshine and napolean dinamite portray this from a different angle, but also are just as dysfunctional. i realized my favorite tv show: brothers and sisters consists of the similar material. a beautiful family that lives in a beautiful home is so crazy inside their home. internal and external conflicts between siblings, parent and children and with their other halves. always when it comes down to it, they come together because they are family and love exists somewhere in the midst of their dysfunctional mess.
