Moral youth
I got to talking with my mates about this movie
Kids that I saw in 1995
cause I thought I was all hip reading the LA weekly when I was 16. It
was great. As I elaborated about the story of how I ended up watching a
movie called
The Thin Red
Line at Leo Fitzpatrick's house in 2000, we
all started thinking of his character in Kids, Telly. It took a while
until I could remember his big line where he's all like "I love virgins.
Call me the virgin surgeon." We were all, "ahhhhhwww shiiiiiit" And the
moment was over.
I remember how I idealized that movie when I was in high school. I knew
some of my friends acted just like those characters, I knew I tried my
damdest to act like them and probably failed. So it ends with any other
talk about an individual in a movie, searching the
Internet Movie Database.
Here's
Leo. He's not doing too bad acording to the page.
So then I thought I'd start reading the user reviews of the movie.
Among the suspected "these crazy kids ruining their generation" tomes
there was an
incredibly
sweet story of a guy who took the movie's realism to heart and
reflected. Here's his quote:
Im a teenager and i think that this movie was awesome.
If kids themselves would watch it they would understand the consept of
aids and other sexual diseases. after watching this movie it made myself
think about how much danger there really is out there. i just thought it
was a good movie because it is pretty much how life is out on the
streets these days. another thing is i have some friends that are just
like the devirginater in this movie and it made me think that maybe he
should get tested so that the people he has done s**t with will know
whether or not they have stds.cause most people dont get it and it never
clicks in their heads that they could be doing some damage to young
girls by sleeping around. thanks
You can't get more honest than that. I think Mr. Clark can rest
quietly tonight.
