i'll take the low road

man, the road is a sickeningly dark and depressing movie. i was writing a stupid essay about why i want to teach elementary school, getting mad at the internet and the dvd was skipping and it was still horrible and made me feel sick.

have you seen it? have you read it? i haven't read any carson mcculler, or whatever the author's name is. i feel like i had never heard of him before the kz and now he's everywhere.

it's a dark future movie where a flash happened and pretty much everything in earth stopped growing. so a guy and his son are working their way south in the foodless, cold, dark wasteland of america where plenty of people want to kill them. i had ideas about the movie like that the kid couldn't walk and that the dad made a bullet out of wood because he was out of bullets, but those things didn't seem to be in the movie. maybe the book?

so, i can't decide if it's good or not, but it's serious shit. liz and i couldn't figure out how it would end because it was clearly not ending well. the ending wasn't good but not the worst. dark shit.
