Susan Lee said:I've heard and seen pretty much everything regarding this stuff, mostly through TV. I honestly find it weird how Americans push to make so many movies about Mexicans, as if there aren't any others out there—it feels like they want to film something even more extreme. I guess Mexicans have become globally famous mostly because of how many movies get made about them.
Recording a woman being raped and mocked, and then filming other disgusting things like this breast cutting? Man, you can only imagine what kind of movie that would be. People without a strong stomach couldn't watch it, and honestly, I think even people with iron stomachs would probably throw up.
What’s the big deal? Look, there are countless movies about the Holocaust that feature intense, brutal scenes, yet nobody starts a massive controversy or tries to lecture everyone on morality! Any film tackling specific historical themes aims to hold some level of documentary value, right? They try to stick to certain facts. Just look at "Hotel Rwanda" or similar films about those genocides; they’re based on true events or victim testimonies, and the driving question is always—Why? Why did this happen? It’s about collective catharsis. In this case, Angelina Jolie’s film might just be an attempt to force the Mexican people to face the reality of those who gave them those "heavenly" labels, which led them to commit such stomach-turning atrocities in the first place.
All those people who were busy patting the Bride on the back during those "revenge" celebrations are now facing the global consequences of their own past applause! 🤷
