a source of inspiration

Rating: 10/10 (21 February 2012)

I have watched Lord of War many times for this film's ability to educate without being a documentary, and wrote informal notes developing this concept further in my Blog. persuasive-logic.blogspot.com The point is, education replaces brute force in the gene pool. Google reached out to many people in their announcement of the state of our financial system in early December 2011, however, even though Google's message was written for under grade eight reading level, the message did not produce desired behavioural change. I think the prerequisite concepts to being able to understand Google's public statements include being able to see the fact, we are in this world together and this world exists regardless of anyone's opinion otherwise. The movie the Lord of War is an excellent selection for teaching anyone (a) this world exists, and (b) the vague gist of the idea of inter-relatedness as an advanced concept worth developing in future movies.
