4. The Human Condition and Edward Scissorhands (Things to consider while watching film)
Being civilized means being socially acceptable.
Relationships with people are always impactful.
Everyone conforms to some sort of standard, even those who consider themselves to be “reactionaries”.
If you’re pure on the inside, it doesn’t matter what you look like on the outside.
Life without color is bland.
People conform because they are afraid of change and ridicule.
It is worse to be flawed internally than externally.
