Which movie did you find more sickening "Silence of the Lambs" or "Mystic River"?
On the surface - "Silence" is about a totally deranged psycopath who is also a cannibal and there is another equally depraved psycho thrown into the mix.
"Mystic" on the other hand (Oscar winner) is an ordinary story of people whose lives go awry owing to a number of circumstances.
Mind you I haven't seen "Silence" - except in random snatches when channel browising - but I have seen enough to piece the story together.
In my opinion "Mystic" is the movie that makes you feel sick and makes you want to rush to the shower - I was never able to like Sean Penn after that movie.
It's like when you see violence in a James Bond movie - it doesn't really register - but in some other instances - the violence is presented in such a gory way - that you'll think about it long after.
What's your take on this?
