I never really felt it was tragic.... I guess Billy Bibbit is kinda tragic. Kinda. McMurphy I don’t feel like is a tragic end, he aimed to not have to do a prison sentence, and succeeded. He didn’t want to be stuck in the institution indefinitely. So he’s death is sort of a “freeing” experience. Plus he changed the lives of some of the other patients. His character switched from being selfish to caring about the rest of them. And Chief finds his freedom too. Cept he might have been tackled by staff, or shot by police shortly after. 🤷🏻♀️ Interesting view of "succeeded" there. Don't you think he still intended to survive? I think the rest of the patients became more important to McMurphy than his own self. I think that is a bit of what the point was. Sure it’s sad what happened to him, I just don’t consider it tragic.

McMurphy was like a savior to many of those patients, and in sacrificing himself he gave others freedom.....
I just mean, he did a positive thing for them, so I look more at THAT angle.
The same way I wouldn’t look at the crucifying of Christ as tragic.
I know that’s a big jump to make, and I’m not saying he was that level of character. Nor am I a bible guy. I just have always looked at the positive side of it rather than feeling bad for McMurphy.
Sure it’s sad, I just wouldn’t call it TRAGIC sad.
I respect your opinion on it though.
Let’s not forget the guy was sent to prison statutory rape.

Starts in 12min 😬 First theater movie for me in over a year I think. 20% capacity, but still there’s only 4 People in here. Me and my friend And two other random people on the complete other side. I hear the movies not great, but I’m still excited for it. At least the music should be good.

Not perfect. Entertaining still. I liked it overall.

Not watching yet, because it doesn’t come out til next month. but I’m excited for it.
Kid 90.
it’s a documentary made with 100’s of hours of camcorder footage that Soleil Moon Frye filmed in the 90’s.
she was a child tv star in the 80’s from one of my favorite shows as a kid, Punky Brewster.
the doc is her and other celebrities from that time discuss what that time was like and the struggles of growing up in the spotlight, along with the good and the bad.
my friend Danny takes part in the doc, but I’d be excited for it regardless....
looks super well made, and having so much hand shot early footage from the first person perspective.
looks rad.

And Liz Hurley!? Was new to me, never heard of it. Like WTF!? Seems to be a pilot for a TV show that didn't happen?

The ratings don't look good either. I haven't seen it, so I can't tell yet.
