Movie rec.

[thelake]

If you're looking for a calm, yet very riveting movie watch Speak (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0378793/). I'm sure most of you know about the book and this movie (in which Kristen Stewart is truly amazing).

It's such a touching story and very well filmed. The quiet scenes (which is like the 90% of the movie) and the inner voice of Melinda was amazing. Kristen Stewart is really really amazing portraying this girl. I just love how her face lights up when she smiles, and throughout the movie you literally miss her smile...

Also Steve Zahn was a bonus for me since I adore him ♥

So, yes, watch this movie and let me know what you think :) I have to find the book and read it sometime. Considering the movie, the actual book must be absolutely amazing!

it is absolutely horrible and women shouldn't be put in this position in the first place, but since we (sadly) seem to have no control over men to stop them raping, we need to take control of the legal system and the social consciousness and push ourself to not stay quiet and suffer in silence. Melinda's story is terrible, fiction or not, but in RL, so many men who go unreported go on to rape again and again. Precedent is important.
