This movie is sooo intense! I would recommend watching it. Unless you're engaged

Leonardo Di Caprio and Kate are two of the best actor of ever.

They are perfect in this movie.

@EyeLean5280 You focus a great deal on your personal views rather than a collective experience or the variables of them as individuals. Nostaligia is fine but things have wider contexts and people only learn by being open to individuals perspectives, attidues and experiences. The background and decision to produce this film is well documented. Many people have issues dealing with the parameters, similarly with Green or Miller. I haven't a fixed opinion in the widest sense.

@bellydancingdream Biologically dependent upon what? Air? Sure. Suburbia? Of course not. Each other? Mostly yes. How much are we affected by changing social conditions? I think that depends on the individual. I know I was happier before Reagan was president (but then again, I was pretty young at the time and that in itself can induce happiness).

We're going to have to agree to disagree as regards the book/film. I see them as definitely about a certain time & place.

@EyeLean5280 so you think humans are biologically dependent, as course? or more affected by changing social conditions? My point is, i don't think this is isolated to the period in which it was written/set, people can still make parallels, at any time.

[EyeLean5280]

@DanPrinMan - the movie itself gets far more depressing than the trailer. It's downright heartbreaking.

Who'd want to watch it? Anyone interested in how the human condition was affected by the historical and cultural moment explored by the film. The 50s were a difficult time for many of that generation, often even those who were privileged by the system (middle class white people). The novel was written as the 50s were unfolding and the film captures the feelings beautifully.

[EyeLean5280]

@bellydancingdream - True, everything always depends. Everything is defined by sensitive dependence on changing conditions. So if you want to make a point, I'd be interested to hear the specifics.

[bellydancingdream]

@EyeLean5280 that depends.

[bellydancingdream]

@GabiMontez85 they did disagree about some of the scenes...like the ending, and she won.

[bellydancingdream]

@rayoup11 I was going to say no but then again.

[bellydancingdream]

@princessdrama5 that's life, a lot of the time.

[bellydancingdream]

@summerdying111 it's all pretty tragic really
