I’m trying something new. Movies have always made me seriously emotional. I cannot help but become SO frightened at key situations, crying uncontrollably at exactly the moments when skilled directors would have me bawling. Growing up in a world where boys don’t cry, and in a family that did NOT show their emotions publicly, I came to detest watching movies. I was always so embarrassed.
As part of a process to tackle this fear and learn to deal with the emotional swings, I am trying to watch one movie a week. I’ll start slow, things I’ve seen before, popcorn romps like Sherlock Holmes. But I hope to expand and let myself try “feeling” again. I’ll post movie reviews along with the feeling swings as best I can.
