In This Is England, what do you guys feel about the relationship of an older woman dating a younger boy.  I feel that it’s just totally wrong to take advantage of an innocent boy.  Maybe it’s a different mind set, but a 19 year old going for a 12 year old is just wrong.  Maybe if it’s a 50 year old going for a 43 year is better.  It bothers me why people would go and become pedophiles.

Prior to watching the Full Monty, I didn’t understand what the phrase meant.  Watching the ending of the Full Monty, I finally figured out what it meant.  It is when a dude or dudes go completely nake and show their “package.”  In urbandictionary.com

Just wondering how they’re going to pull this off.

When the black man is captured and bought into a private area, he is tied up and bagged up in the face.  The long hair Irish man is the only face who the black man saw.  The black man begs for the lift of the bag covering his face, but the long hair Irish guy said no.  When the black man needed to take a leak, he took a leak, but he couldn’t stick back his genitals back in.  He asked the Irish man to stick it back in.  At this point, I’m thinking what’s going on?  I would never do that.  In another scene, they emphasized the black man lips while he was smoking.  It show signs of eroticism.  During the black man’s attempt to escape, the white man had the opportunity to shoot him, but he chosed not to.  I believe he would rather see him run and escape then just die in his own hand.  I’m not sure if this is homoly erotic or is this a brotherly thing, because he meets up and hooks up with the girl in the picture.

From the Beautiful Laundrette, I have noticed in Powder Laundry the window that’s a mirror.  In one view of the window/ mirror, you can see a reflection of one self.  In the other view of the window/mirror, is where you can view from the inside to the outside.  I believe that this is window is symbolic to the whole idea of relationships.  For instance, the relationship between Omar and Johnny (or Jonny), on how they don’t want the world to know their relationship and only want to keep it to themselves.  Another example of this one way window is Saleen (if I mispelled his name, I’m sorry) in his cocaine trafficking. 

P.S.  is this the right place to put a thread like this?
