Dark Knight
August 1, 2008
I have been at a bit of a loss recently about the direction this blog was going in…updates on the exciting world of animation? links to exciting and inspiring projects? thoughts and musings about the world and my adventures in it? ultimately, as a close friend pointed out…my blog is all of it, as it is, in fact….ME. a reflection of all aspects of me
and one of the most profound experiences i had recently encompassed all of those things…watching Dark Knight. I was so unbelievably uncomfortable, and at the same time…so moved. there were so many layers of commentary on everything from what’s going in the world, to the internal struggles that we face as we learn to develop our own morality and sense of ethics. my friend that i watched the film with had such a catharsis watching the film that i was also reminded of why i am an actor and the importance of story telling. i remember being a little girl and learning so much about the world and myself through both film and theatre…i remember deciding that i wanted to be able to be a part of projects that offered that type of emotional release or discovery for others. that is what i strive to do. what inspires you about film? have you ever watched a film that changed your life?
