]]> Comment on Sundance Review: THE LINGUISTS by Alex http://rooftopfilms.com/blog/2008/01/sundance-review-the-linguists.html/comment-page-1#comment-285738 Alex Tue, 29 Jan 2013 14:32:39 +0000 http://rooftopfilms.com/blog2/?p=96#comment-285738 Thanks for this insightful review. I agree that the film is characterized by a kind of disconnection, as evidenced by features like its failure to convey to viewers what deeper concerns and passions motivate the main "characters" to pursue their "adventure." As someone who works in the field of linguistics, I find this kind of dissociation all too common. The inclusion of footage in which a guinea pig is slaughtered speaks of the same disconnect and is disturbing and unforgivable. Thanks for this insightful review.

They reverberate throughout the universe like the Butterfly Effect. If you send out good, then good comes back to you. If you send out negative that it swings back to you. Many people operate on a less than thinking basis. They go through life thinking that what they do doesn't affect anyone else.
