Forced me to FINALLY start my DRY FAST!
At the end of this film The Whale I loudly told the audience i am 40 pounds overweight and I am starting a Dry Fast right effing now because I am NEVER going to end up like this EVER! This is one of the most important movies ever made.
Read Sun & Steel by Yukio Mishima the greatest essay of all time free PDF online to discover the exact opposite of what Brendan Fraser's character was doing. Btw Mishima was bisexual and 3 time Nobel Literature nominee so I'm surprised there was no mention of him from this character who truly is a phenomenal English writing teacher btw, a solid direction from Darren Aronofsky and a jaw dropping performance from Brendan Fraser who truly deserves the Best Actor Oscar and a stellar performance from Sadie Sink who plays his daughter.
I would've cried if the ending was different, I wasn't so angry at the nurse for feeding him chicken in the opening scene, and at myself that it took this long and this movie to finally shock me into action. You CAN end up like this.
Btw some truly revolting scenes so be warned I was holding my hand in front of my face and staring away at points verbally exclaiming WTF at points. Most of the audience was sobbing in tears at the end and I could see reflections of parts of my own psyche in this film.
If you have weight to lose or know someone who is obese which is 2/3rds TWO THIRDS of America then go see this and drag them with you.
Ttyl I'm gonna go see Everything Everywhere All At Once to recover from this and enjoy myself 2 days into this dry fast. Btw THAT is a very fun movie truly deserves the Best Picture Oscar the single most creative film I've seen in decades.
