Face of Evil…those words present differently to
everyone.
For a four year old? What does a four year old see as
evil? Maybe, just scary, which is
plenty.
For teens?
Evil? Would they recognize true
evil beyond “American Horror Story”?
Ah, but for adults…adults see evil in its many forms.
Evil comes in the form of amoral, sociopaths, psychopaths, and every other “path”
in the world.
In the years between 2000 and 2008, evil sneaked in
silently, in the back door quite literally. It tiptoed in, stealing
homes through mortgages, fraudulent and devastating.
In this movie, The Big Short, historical events grab viewers and shake them like a dirty puppy, foisting humor and heartless
greed.
Names are real, what they did
is real, what happened is real. What
these evil men slammed down in paper volumes of numbers, economically spread across the world, nearly causing
entire countries to collapse.
Faces of Evil leap from the screen and will remain in
viewers’ minds.
At least it does in mine.
