Unhappy Movie

UnHappy Movie

I'm really a happy dog.  Sometimes I can be a sad dog, because I'm sad when the Jewish lady and the wolfman are sad, but especially the Jewish lady.  The Jewish lady and the wolfman like to read a lot of books!  I try to read their books, but their books are hard.  Sometimes they watch movies though, and then I can understand, except sometimes I still don't.

Usually, when the movie begins, they're smiling and happy.  The wolfman explains why it's a good idea for them to watch the movie.  But then, sometimes, they watch the movie, and are sad.  Sometimes I don't understand these movies, because I can't read fast enough.  I don't like when their movies are like books.

One movie was not like a book...and it had animals!  The stars were animals, but it made the wolfman very angry.  This movie was called "The Life of Pi."  The wolfman got really angry.  He didn't understand why people who have ham-colored skin like to pretend they're people with chocolate-colored skin.  He said something about cheap orientalism, and pointlessly non-linear narrative elements.  I didn't understand this and it reminded me of words in the wolfman's books.

The wolfman then said some bad words about the Quebecois man who wrote the movie, and vowed never to travel to France.  Does that mean Quebec is a place in France?  I don't know.  The Jewish lady didn't like the movie either, but she didn't seem mad.  She was more sad for the wolfman.

I didn't like the movie because the lion was a computer.  They should have used a real lion, some lions need jobs.  If I didn't have a job I'd still be in jail.  But the movie had many shiny colors, and I liked that.  1.5 stars / 5
