She doesn't understand that people relate to things.
She likes to relate, but she doesn't like to be scared into thoughts. The Silence of the Lambs hit too close to home for her. Watching another movie along the same lines of a serial killer is too realistic for her taste, I suppose.
I got into an argument with my mother tonight about these kinds of movies and how the main purpose of their making, is to help one to realize the stories behind people's God-fearing actions. Then she made a comment that these stories make people famous. That for some, being a serial killer, is the only way to fame and glory, and that leads people to destruct lives. Yes, that's true, I suppose...
I stated that Bowling for Columbine was filmed with that same thought in mind, to make people realize how actions affect. She still hates that movie.
I asked her why, and her only answer was "It's too sad. Too real."
Tsk.
It's the same thing with politics.
