Edie (2017)
Wonderful
A beautiful film which makes you think seriously about how you view and treat older people. Loved every minute and Sheila Hancock is truly amazing. Why she's not received the plaudits of the likes of Julie Walters or Judy Dench is a mystery to me.
Flightplan (2005)
I enjoyed it
What I liked about this movie was the way it challenged our stereotyping of people. It definitely had me doubting what I'd seen as it progressed. Was she delusional after all? The small heart drawn on the window was all the viewer needed to know something sinister was definitely going on. The Arab passengers were well portrayed and so was the attitude of some passengers in drawing instant conclusions at the fact that there were some Arab men on board. The scene very near the end where they appear briefly once more was a wake-up call for anyone who stereotypes or pigeonholes people.
I liked this movie a lot and would thoroughly recommend it as it makes the viewer question their own attitudes to several aspects of this modern world.
