Throughout the entire blogging process I have learned so much about my fellow classmates; how they write, their interests and internal personalities, and so on. The most fascinating thing about this entire experience came from reading other students' blogs and gaining insight into the characteristics of their inner monologues. Anyways, writing these blogs have also improved myself when it comes to my writing style and creative drive. I have not written with such few rules for years, the last memorable time coming from Mr. Stuart's Creative Writing course that I took as a sophomore. The freedom of these blogs has really given us, in my opinion, a great insight into human nature and our day-to-day lives. Every week that I noticed multiple reoccurring themes of some kind throughout the entire AP English blogging community it served as a reminder to me that we do share a lot of similarities, despite pressing thoughts of nonconformity and feelings of separateness. We really have grown into a sort of family and I really do appreciate that sense of community that we have together. Blogging has also allowed me to drone on about film without any kind of social norms prohibiting me. Where else can I talk and analyze books, films, and my personal experiences weekly and not receive chastising criticism? If any of my reader could not tell, I really do love the art form, and blogging has served as a very fun outlet for my love for said art form. I am just realizing this now, but it seems as if I also pulled a book ending out for my movie-related blogs; I happened to begin them with discussions of murder and the mental decline of Ignatius J. Reilly, and ended with discussing a mentally disturbed serial killer, Patrick Bateman from American Psycho, in relation to book-to-film adaptations. Of course, this end also comes with a bit of a disappointment; I still have many films I want to discuss, but alas, we have to move on to other things. The ultimate film I leave my audience with is "The Fall", the most aesthetically beautiful film I have ever seen, all done with absolutely minimal special effects (only done to accomplish the impossible, all of the sets exist).
So, to do the film justice, here's the trailer in 720p:
