Review of Spread (2009) by Dominic O — 14 Nov 2009

Because I have never, do not, and never will understand why people seem to be to shallow and disgusting. Instead I like to see the beauty and potential in them beyond the surface. Yes it leads to a skewed perspective and makes interpersonal relationships impossible.

. and awkward.. at the end of the day I don't need to look introspectively back on how badly I failed most of them, or how many I helped.. because they are too busy with each other for the view from my perspective to matter.

I guess I'm addicted to those small compliments, and am glad of not being addicted to worship... of being totally repulsed by any type of recognition. Ashton's Nikki mentions it near the beginning, how's he isn't interested in anything post coital.

Why bother letting it get even that far then? Why is it that people seem driven to that moment but need to take it to such excess? Dedicating their lives to deprivation, shame, disappointment. Subsisting on candy relationships where relationships of meaning and worth are just not interesting enough to nurture and cultivate? It's critically balled movies like this that point fingers where the social consciousness is most sore.

Behold it and know shame, or go back to your beds and lay.
