Monday, November 03, 2003 Modest Scarring A student film. " A young man toying with the idea of getting a tattoo interviews his family, tattoo artists and other people to see how they feel about it. " It's at IFilm here. Runs about 28 min. I don't want to give away the ending since the whole thing is his debate on whether to get a tattoo or not, but his argument comes down to whether he will regret never having been rebellious enough to mutilate his body when he felt like doing so. Even though he knows he may not like having a tattoo when he's 30 or 40. His attitude about bourgeois (bore-jee-wah) people is curious. He really hates the idea of being an ordinary joe. Makes you want to shove Ecclesiates under his nose - "Vanity of vanities, all is vanity saith the Lord." That text made a deep impression on me when I was young. (I never let my daughter get her ears pierced. Bodies don't need extra holes in them.) posted by Mark Butterworth | 3:41 AM | |
