Should you go and see The White Ribbon?
Some people have sent me emails asking if we can go and see 'The White Ribbon' which starts on 6 May.
Well you are probably going to think I am a big baby, but ... No!!
Yes it is superb and yes it does explain quite a lot about the German pre-Nazi psyche, but I just found it too disturbing and depressing. I just don't think that you need this in a year when you have enough HSC stress, etc... I would not have taken my own kids to this when they were in Year 12.
I thought it was an excellent piece of movie art, but I can't really say that I enjoyed it. I kind of wish I hadn't seen it even if I do think that I understand Nazi Germany a bit better after seeing it... if that makes sense!?
But you are big people! lol What you do in your own time is your business. But don't say I didn't warn you!

It's a video taken in Turkey inside a parking lot where a tomcat tries to revive his injured girlfriend (who got run over by a car).
