Sign of the Times

So, the 'twist' that will soften the impact - doesn't. It still sheds light to the idea that preys on reasons people are afraid to adopt.

I've been putting together some thoughts on this.

Two movies - one in 1982 and one in 2009. Both are movies about Orphans.

The 1982 movie is 'Annie'.

The 2009 movie, of course, is 'Orphan'.

In one, a little girl is hopeful and sure 'the sun will come out tomorrow'. In the other, the little girl is making sure no sun comes out again.

One gave a good outlook on these children in which the world was corrupt around them, one gave the story about the 'child' being corrupt.

If you follow my tags under this post about 'Orphan' you know how I feel about this movie. Its scary sometimes how the perspectives have changed. Its frightening what 27 years, in this case, can do.
