Downfall

The other day I was bored enough to watch the movie Downfall. The movie was about the final days of Adolf Hitler and those that were around him before his death. The story is mainly focused on Hitler's secretary, and what she saw during the time in Adolf Hitler's bunker. I found the story interesting. I actually liked the movie and it made me feel pity for Hitler in his final days when he knew he was going to lose. I am saying I pity him, not supporting him; just making that clear. In the movie, the saddest scene to me was when this woman decided to kill her children when she realized Hitler was going to lose, she didn't want them living in a world without national socialism, or Nazism. She gave all her children medicine that would make them fall asleep, once they were asleep she put cyanide capsules into their mouth and closed their mouths causing it to break and kill them. I thought it was very sad, I wouldn't be able to kill my own kids... But eventually she and her husband killed herself as well. I believe the woman who killed her children was Eva Braun's sister, thus making her Hitler's sister in law. At the end of the movie, it switches to a present day interview with Hitler's secretary claiming she knew nothing about the concentration camps, and if she did she wouldn't have been his secretary.. I recommend this movie to those who like watching historical drama themed movies.

The Fosters

I do not normally get into the whole chick type soap operas or cheesy girly shows on ABC Family, but the Fosters are a different story. I am always watching it every Monday night. It is obviously about a Foster family but the story line is so interesting and there are constants twists and juicy drama.. The plot and everything is so hard to explain because a lot happens that I cannot summarize so I'll just post a wikipedia link or something to summarize it for me. Great show though, highly recommend it

But anyway I like how modern it is. How they incorporate the gay community and the other ethnicity groups in the mix.. It shows that they do not discriminate.. I can't wait until next Monday to watch it as well

People change

Its scary knowing that someone can change so drastically. I remember when I started high school with all my middle school friends, thinking we will be together forever. I consider them my brothers and I still do, I miss them dearly. But a lot of things changed my relationship with them. Drugs, who I'm dating, who I've dated before, fights, who've they dated, other friends, etc. I barely talk to them now, the only person out of my group of middle school friends that I still talk to is... shoot just the person I'm dating now. And I know that the guy I'm dating now is still changing. In a way I'm changing also, I just don't see it fully. I'm scared of what more change will bring, I don't want to lose anymore people close to me. I already feel alone now, I have my boyfriend and a new group of friends. But they aren't the same. My boyfriend tells me to just move past them because obviously they've moved on past me and that hurts to hear. It hurts knowing the people you consider like brothers don't want anything to do with you. It hurts moving on from any sort of break up, because in a way I broke up with my old friends. I don't like feeling alone now. The new friends I have, I don't trust them and I don't want to get close to them (hidden backstory). They aren't even my friends, things they've done and for one they are my boyfriend's friends, they tolerate me. They don't love me like my friends before.. Hell I don't think my old friends even love me anymore. I'm sorry this is kinda personal, I have no diary that wasn't already invaded by my family. So I have this. No one here knows my name so I feel as though I can vent here.

The Butler

*Spoiler Alert*

I am a sucker for stories that are based off true events, and true historic events. Lee Daniel's The Butler was an amazing movie. It was so moving to me,I enjoyed every moment watching it. People say not all the event in the movie were true. For one it was said to be loosely based off of the butler named Eugene Allen.

Cecil Gaines was a very good person, did what he was told and always followed the rules in a way. I loved how devoted he was to his work, of course that would take a toll in his family life. I love the people they chose to play the presidents in this film. The man who played Nixon was so close to Nixon. And Robin Williams, good actor. I love the cast they chose for the Gaines family. Oprah was moving and not to mention funny. The two sons were wonderful actors.

It showed what was going on through the whole civil rights movement. To me that is very interesting, seeing what hardships the African-American community had to endure to get the freedom we have today. I love the ending when Cecil came to the white house to meet President Barack Obama. I also liked the part where he realized that his son wasn't just being rebellious, he was just fighting for his right. A lot of people at the time probably didn't realize what the young kids were doing when they were riding the freedom bus, or protesting for Nelson Mandela's release in South Africa.

All in all, it was a great movie.

On a scale from 1-10 I give this an 8 and I highly recommend people to see.
