Out of curiosity
Feb. 25th, 2004 09:28 amThis is a private poll. No one can see the results but me. This is just for my own benefit, because I think there's a fair number of people on my list who self-injure of whom I wasn't aware, apart from those I knew about.
No pressure. I'd just like to know, but I've always been too curious for my own good. :)

Date: 2004-02-25 06:57 am (UTC)The Passion of The Christ (http://www.ThePassionOfTheChrist.com) is in theaters soon - this week on Wednesday.. what do you think about this movie? I'm going to see it for sure - the trailers (http://www.thepassion.tv) were enough to convince me. I read somewhere that it's the widest opening ever for a subtitled movie; I have a feeling subtitles won't detract from the full effect of this movie though. After looking at the trailers which have no subtitles or english at all, it was reinforced for me that lack of spoken english in this film won't hurt one bit. To sum up my impression of The Passion: it's a work of art.
Good Website (http://www.passion-movie.com)
Another fascinating aspect to this movie is all the controversy that has been generated about it.
Some people, not really representative of Jewish people, but rather self appointed Jewish spokespeople, such as Abraham Foxman from the Anti-Defamation League, seem to have been attempting to denounce this film for months as being anti-Semitic. The news reported that they even stole the script last year! But here's what some Jews say (Jews who don't make it their job to tear apart other people): by Rabbi Daniel Lapin.
Nice to see some people speaking rationally.
So what do you think of all this?

I pull my hair out in times of stress, along my parting; I don't do it to hurt myself, but it probably is a coping mechanism. It's just not quite as conscious as, for example, actually cutting. I do it less than I used to, but I have done it ever since my GCSEs.

Thank you for answering my poll. :)
