Final Blog

I wasn't quite sure how to feel about Leaving Normal. I thought the whole thing was kind of cheesy, especially the new family they formed at the end. I also wasn't sure about how to feel about the truck driver, I guess I wasn't sure about how neccesary it was. I also would have liked to find out about the daughter. This was certainly not my favorite road film of the year, it was belittled by Set it Off which was my personal favorite. I thought that it was an interesting exploration into the pressures of race and womanhood and it was one of the few movies that had a satisfying ending.
Hope you all have a wonderful time with finals! Thanks Professor Zita!
