He Was a Quiet Man
Sunday, August 31st, 2008He Was a Quiet Man draws on one of the most morbid aspects of our society and describes it perfectly.
Christian Slater plays the quiet cubicle worker, who, abused and mistreated by his coworkers, decides to shoot up the office.
Fortunately for him, another man in his position takes aim first, and Slater takes him down with the bullets he had originally meant for his coworkers.
After the aftermath, his coworkers whom he loathed, treat him as a hero; and the object of his desire, played by Elisha Cuthbert, is paralyzed from a bullet wound.
While Cuthbert initially enlists Slater to help her end her life, the two eventually form a bond that would have never otherwise occurred.
The movie leads us down a path of insanity and through the surreal, morbid, and sickened world of Slater’s character almost flawlessly; and delivers a thought provoking, eye opening take on the mind of a psychotic would be murderer.
enjoy!
