Movies:Lawn Dogs
From Tractatus
My favorite genre has to be that of Fable. Probably the best known such film would be Edward Scissorhands, but my favorite film to recommend is Movies:Lawn Dogs. Sam Rockwell stars opposite a charming Mischa Barton. Trent(Rockwell) mows lawns in a far off place known as suburbia. Devon(Barton) befreinds the social outcast Trent(Rockwell) who mows lawns in the `perfect' suburbia her parents have placed around her.
The characters are challenged by their immoral behavior, and their actions are contrasted to the outward appearance of acceptibility. What sets this film apart for me is the richness of the main characters, and the judgement at the end which delivers the message, and frees us from the burdens of reality, placing the emphasis on what is good.
