british director lynne ramsay’s adaptation of lionel shriver’s novel, we need to talk about kevin, deals with a high - school massacre, raising uncomfortable questions about family and adolescence, as mark fisher discusses in his review.

the rte documentary we need to talk about dad, focused on the difficult choices faced by the courtney family in trying to provide the best care possible for frank after he had a stroke. it highlighted in particular the difficulties in navigating the fair deal nursing home support scheme and the fact that it does not cover care in the home .
we need to talk about kevin is a mother’s horror story, or a horror story about motherhood. one could say it is every mother’s worst fear (or one of them, a parent’s life being hardly lacking in worst fears); or, conversely, that it is the wish - fulfilment fantasy for those who choose not to have children (why shouldn’t this happen to any parent ?). in the novel, eva refers to both alien and rosemary’s baby, but these cinematic precursors are about the horrors of pregnancy; in we need to talk about kevin, the real horror only ensues after a child’s birth .

you' d think so but sadly no. 10 minutes just isn' t realistic - heck it' ll take us 10 minutes to even get started while we wait for your dad who' s always late or for your grandmother to get out of the car. each family picture only takes seconds to capture but for each group of family members we need to allow 3 - 5 minutes to gather and arrange them and then take multiple exposure to make sure we have great expressions and no blinking. let' s have a hypothetical couple - alex and sam - in ~ 30 minutes we' d be able to take the following pictures :

in two of her novels, shriver is not afraid to write about subjects which stick in the craw of most american' s today. in her 2010 novel, so much for that she tackled to american health care system and in 2003 in we need to talk about kevin, it was school shootings. the story consists of eva khatchadourian' s letters to her husband franklin; they start from twelve months after their son kevin has done the unthinkable and killed seven classmates, one teacher and a cafeteria worker. eva is looking b

me? i need no time for pictures ;) the question is really how much time do you need for pictures? ! do you have small families with parents still together? 30 minutes should do us. larger extended families with divorced parents, new steparents and siblings? we' ll need more time! what i mean to say is it' s really up to you how much time we spend taking formal family / wedding party and couples pictures. it' s your wedding day and they' re your wedding pictures that will fill your album or hang on your wall. the majority of couples that hire me as their wedding photographer really value beautiful pictures and they want to make sure they have enough time to get the images they want. we can bust out an awesome picture of the wedding party in 5 minutes but if you want to do on - location, take pictures individually with each attendant and get more creative we' ll need more time !
overwritten. arduous. boring. seeing as we need to talk about kevin is famous for being such a gritty, disturbing read, i always expected to love it in a sick, twisted kind of way. unfortunately, it is not what i expected at all. i had to force myself through one overstuffed sentence after another, only to be left feeling drained and dissatisfied. i knew i was in for a paint - dryingly slow read almost immediately. every sentence is padded out with big words and details that are clearly there to imp

two general trends, which no doubt nourish each other, account for a film like we need to talk about kevin. a section of the upper middle class artists finds it uncomfortable to examine social life seriously, because such an examination would involve holding up a mirror too closely to a society in which they live quite pleasantly. second, decades of intellectual and cultural retrogression, unhappily, have produced a generation of artists who simply find it too taxing to work through a complex social problem. they throw up their hands and produce work like this .
“we couldn’t use fucking coke, we couldn’t use campbell’s soup cans. ” so said lynne ramsay of her remarkable adaptation of lionel shriver’s novel we need to talk about kevin. as a result of this excision of brand names which didn’t wish to be associated with its controversial subject matter, the film is marked by a kind of negative product placement. accordingly, it’s set in a kind of alternative america, an america, you might say, that is the exact inverse of the country invoked by the magical rituals of advertising. here, the family is not the gently glowing space where parents find the meaning in their lives, mothers do not always bond with their children, but teenagers—they kill other teenagers .
we need to talk about kevin is about the aftermath of a columbine - style shooting at a school in a small american town. it focuses on, and is entirely focused through, eva (tilda swinton), the killer’s mother, and her attempts to come to terms with what her son, kevin, has done. eva is persecuted—her property is covered in red paint, she is struck in the street—as if she, rather than her son, was really responsible for the atrocity. eva herself somewhat shares this judgement, not least because kevin’s violence does not entirely come as a shock to her. she has long suspected him to be either psychopathic or evil .

we need to talk about kevin is a 2011 psychological thriller drama film based on a book written by lionel shriver in 2003.

bouhadana’s behavior is ultimately one that stems from a sense of entitlement — not just to copy and disseminate another culture (that’s a whole other conversation), but to do so while diminishing the people who created it. as diners, we need to consider what it means when we support someone who disregards history and context in favor of a joke, even if their food is as remarkable as his .

so one of your big topics — and obviously how a lot of people, myself included, have found your videos via reddit — is communism. what sparked your interest in communism? one day, i heard about it and so i found out more about it. i found out about it’s history of being, um … it started when i first heard about communism and the idea of nations sharing the wealth. oftentimes, schools just spread this propaganda about it being a bad thing, and say you shouldn’t question it and you shouldn’t think about the fact that it brings money to people who need it; you should just go along with the fact that it’s inherently evil, even though it would stop the problem of having so many poor people .

: the film version' s first shot / climax is of billowing curtains in a dark house with the click - click - click sound of a lawn sprinkler in the background. we hear the sprinker throughout the film whenever something really bad is about to happen, so when we reach the final flashback when eva returns home from the shooting scene and we see the same shot from the beginning of the film, with the sprinker going nuts in the background, we know that whatever she finds on the patio behind the curtains isn' t going to be pretty .

if the bride' s reason is wanting to see his reaction as they walk down the aisle, i can assure you he' ll be just as enamored after a first look. we are so happy we got to enjoy our pictures beforehand, and then spend the whole cocktail hour with our friends and family. it made me feel so much calmer seeing him before the ceremony. i can' t imagine not being together for so much of the wedding day. i still felt so excited during the ceremony, but i was thinking about being in the moment rather than wanting to talk to him or say how handsome he looked (because we already got to do that !) .
color - blindness is not good. it is not good to be color - blind. there’s been plenty written on why. psychology today calls it a form of racism. and here’s a piece on everyday feminism detailing how colorblindness perpetuates injustice (the article also acknowledges that “color - blind” as a term is ableist). and here’s an article in the atlantic debunking the argument that focusing on race actually causes the nationalist movement we’ve been seeing more of recently. and here’s a thought - provoking ted talk on how we need to move from being color - blind to “color - brave. ”

situations like this are sufficiently rare that we don’t have an evidence base to know what to do. if you’re trying to treat a sociopath, you have to back them into a corner so tightly that there’s absolutely no way for them to escape except to talk to you and open up. dexter [ from the showtime series ] is a sociopath and can’t relate to people, and it’s only when dexter is backed into a situation of incredibly intimacy that he starts to talk to himself, or people. so you try to build a relationship, but what’s the likelihood that you’re going to be able to do it? i mean, this kid is beyond treatment. society needs to be protected from him. but it was a beautiful, beautiful film !

i have to say i’m glad i went into this book not knowing what to expect. the element of surprise made it much more interesting albeit disturbing. i thought the writing was very good. it made the characters sound intelligent which made it even more disturbing. it felt very relevant to the events that are happening these days at an alarming rate. and as much as it’s not pleasant to talk about, it is helpful to be forced to think about this issue to try to understand and do something about it. i would like to think that there isn’t a mother out there that would respond to their baby from birth the way eva did. but then there’s the huge argument about nature versus nurture that really makes you contemplate what would reality be in a case similar to this one. i will not watch the movie! !

i think the issue for henry was that he had been sympathetic and had played the game of happy families to keep mum happy - she clearly couldn' t bear to consider that the dad had consciously intended to hurt her, she seemed to be living in a cloud of denial imo and the impact of that on her kids was awful. from what i read of the guardian article about it there are 3 children - i assume the girl at dinner was the 3rd, what is she teaching her about her value as a woman! ? it' s ok for a dh to crush your head with an axe! ? henry' s question of

it perpetuates the notion that diversity is bad for some reason: one of my colleagues of color, when told by another person that they don’t see her color, said, “why not? is there something bad about my color? ” the other person stumbled to find a response. “if you don’t think there’s anything bad about my color, ” continued my colleague, “then why do you need to say you don’t see it? ” there’s nothing yucky or bad about being of color. by denying the existence of color, you turn it from something positive into something negative. diversity is good. there are now lots of studies that show that diversity leads to stronger business performance, increased board effectiveness, higher customer satisfaction, etc. diversity and inclusion are not scary. we don’t need to be afraid of them. they’re actually good things. you want to see good things in the world, right ?

to name just a few). unlike the old school wedding videographers who just stood at the back of everything with a tripod, these talented filmmakers product some of the most amazing wedding trailers ever. and they need time with you to get that footage. i' d like to think i work really well with these film team and
share
the time we have with the couple (at least i hope i do! ! !) but it' s worth checking with your film team to see if they need specific time with you .

that was so sad. the boys came across as lovely and am sure the mum did her best but poor henry just desperately wanted to talk and noone would let him. what a sad repressed family .

i’m not really sure i agree with the weakness of kevin as a character… since everything is told from the perspective of eva, i think we’re not watching so much an evil that defies explanation, but instead a mother that can’t really make sense of it. we’re not watching the story begin, we’re watching her recollection after the fact, tainted by the incident, so now she remembers her not planing the pregnancy, her despair at the changes of her life due to motherhood and her recalling of the child she never wanted as being evil from birth… but we don’t know how it all really happened, we’re just watching her fight to make sense of this .
anybody else watching? the boys are so lovely, particularly henry. it' s awful to watch him try to make sense of what his dad did and how his mum reacted top it. i hope making the programme has helped him to get the answers he needs .
lachlan could feel his happiness sinking. he had a big title but wondered about the extent of his real power .

we have a memetics division, a telekontainment division, fire services, ops - a, ops - b, personnel, d - personnel and two dozen others. we don' t have an antimemetics division .
he was about two or three then, wasn' t he? probably not old enough for proper manipulation, but old enough to know to do the opposite of what people want him to .
later, dawn sees the surgical board is filled with a lot charlie’s surgeries that he asked to be moved up. dawn tells the nurse to hold off on telling the patients and she goes to call the board concerned for charlie. we see charlie in his office not looking like himself and we all grow concerned for him .
he' s described at least once as having scabbed knuckles, suggesting that his scuffles in prison may not be entirely one - sided. his fear about being transferred to an adult prison is more about the fact that he' ll have to deal with much more than just fistfights there .
i’ve just seen the movie, and i find it obvious that is hard to put all the blame on one person. instead, here’s my view: – kevin clearly has what is called ‘the evil gene’ if you believe it that, or otherwise, he’s simply put: messed up (call it reincarnation, karma, genealogical behavior, parent’s ego etc .) – modern society forbids and doesn’t take kindly blocking the child’s personality by the parents. it’s like a golden rule, especially for rich families. no roadblocks, even if the kid’s behavior is messed up. – the main reason. indicated even by the title. “we need to talk about kevin”. there is no dialog between eva and franklin. when it comes about kevin, the two of them are opposed. she clearly sees the problem in him, but franklin as a modern father refuses to do anything about it and even more turns him self against her .
from sydney, lachlan put in a call to his dad. lachlan usually refers to him, even in business settings, as
dad
. rupert likes to keep in touch with his vast kingdom via frequent phone calls, and for most of lachlan' s adult life few workdays passed without talking to his father about some business matter. mostly, lachlan looked forward to these calls. working closely with his father had been, for a long time, one of the job' s pleasures. lately, though, there' d been a shift, an unhappy one. something unarticulated had come between father and son, creating a strain. lachlan felt it keenly .
the mother seems very independent. she loves to travel, and we’re to assume that she’s a travel writer. all that goes away when she has kevin, and she becomes domesticated .
there isn' t ,
clay asserts .
scp numbers aren' t assigned sequentially. there are gaps. that number hasn' t been assigned. it' s not superstition, we have enough to be concerned about without arbitrary numerological mysticism. we have scp - 666 and scp - 013. but there' s no scp - 001. and there' s no scp - 055 .
with divorced parents it' s worth thinking about which pictures you' d want in your wedding album - sometimes parents get along great and they' re happy to be in a picture together, other times they haven' t spoken in years and it would be completely unnatural to have a picture of them together. also check in with your parents separately and find out which pictures will be important to them. sometimes to avoid spending hours duplicating every possible picture combination it can make sense to get a large group picture with mom' s side of the family, a large group picture of dad' s side of the family and then individual pictures with mom, dad and siblings .
unreliable narrator: eva. the book is her written account of what happened, and the movie takes place in her mind. however, we ultimately never know if anything is exaggerated or fabricated, since we never get a different account to compare hers to. her brutal honesty makes us trust her more, though .
first of all, i love you. i have met so many wonderful people while doing this work, and everyone i’ve encountered is trying hard to make the world better. the issues we tackle are so challenging and complex. we don’t all have the same backgrounds or upbringings or conversations, so we are on different points along the continuum. some people are at the beginner end, some at the more experienced end.
