 Re: Why say "Violent"?
Wow ... I don't follow movies much and since the baby was born have not seen many. I didn't realize that Shawshank and Forest were in the same year. It would be tough for me to say which was "better". Both were fantastic works of art in my opinion, but as different as coffee is different from tea. Both pass my "digestion" test, which is: you see the movie, sleep on it, then parts of it come back to you the next day as you're just doing stuff and you see what it was really about. To me this is a good test for literature and movies that seems to be hard to pass. I can't say I ever "got" pulp fiction. Seems like it was a good movie for a lot of people though. For those that liked it, what would you say it was mainly about? I thought of "betrayal", "honor among thieves and other lowlifes", and "desperation".
