Carrington (1995) -
starring Ms. Emma Thompson
This movie has some rather ravishing sex
scenes involving our Dear
Ms. Emma Thompson - so its not to be missed on that account alone,
I suppose.
That said, its not a brilliant idea in its concept of equal liberty as it
were
to the pleasures of the spirit and flesh.
We have had various examples of going too far in suggesting or
proposing or
positing other notions for what are old fashioned values
of traditional family
and loyalties thereto related.
In a nutshell, Ms Thompson's character as scripted (as bizarre as this is)
is telling us that its not the handsome young gallant Germanic British
soldier
in officers uniform that is her thrill. Instead, its a Rasputin like
figure of
an old long-bearded homosexual man with a voice too
many octaves too strained to sound like he would have real integrity
in pursuing the affair -
given
her own honest needs that is. This, she
says is her thrill - in fact "she
doesn't want
to carry a child - unless its
his - otherwise she wants it not to be born"
- she
loves this Rasputin like
man she says - because in her own words - "he is
cold
and wise"
Who wants cold?!!!!!!!!!! (weird!) Keep the advice to yourself my dear!
Furthermore Dear Emma, the words "cold" and "wise" are
mutually
exclusive
as a way of life option I submit in the strongest possible
terms of what is
Christianly endeavour - hoping for better choices
for all in what spirit we
strive to maintain in our lives for as long as
we choose to live on.
