On fishes and men...

Sometimes documentaries can kick fictions' ass. I saw "Darwin's Nightmare", a French/Belgium/Austrian documentary on Wednesday and despite its flaws, this is a film that everybody should see.

It's "funny" because the following day I went to see "Million Dollar Baby", and then I thought that watching Darwin's Nightmare was like being punched, it was raw just like boxing can be, hard and human at the same time...the only difference is that the viewers keep being punched again and again, the viewers aren't champions, they can't smile like Maggie in Eastwood's movie, they can only feel guilty....

The more this cautionary tale progresses the more we sink into the nightmare, and fighting seems to be just an illusion. Because you can't fight back such disturbing truth...Unlike boxing, the punches don't make you blind, they make your eyes wild open and prevent you from closing them.( Darwin' Nightmare )
