The Class



The movie is vastly realistic to an extend that it's documentary-esque. The interaction slash reaction, jumping off the screen into life. Makes me wonder, the education system is actually flawed in a way. A very miserable one in fact. Teachers are supposed to impart, not to judge. Evaluate, is the right word here. Being superior in age and knowledge doesn't exempt you from anything. Respect, works two ways.

"You called us "skanks" and to us skanks means prostitutes, so why is it wrong that we call you teachers "fuckers" ? "

exerpt from the movie. Teacher replied, saying it is diferent. That student can't say things teacher can. He walked away, contradicting himself. His teachings, the values imparted. Should we adhere by rules, so flawed that even a child understands? The simple gesture of taking and returning his sibling's toy, of giving and receving, of hitting and retaliating ( i did when i was a kid, my dad hit me and i hid his rotan wtf). Everything that is the simple rule of respect, that goes in a two way street.

The movie ended in a beautiful unresolved manner and set me in a trance of contemplation.

The.... (end...)*echoing in the background*

(beautiful unresolved ending wtf)
