Treed Murray (2001)

It's about seeing yourself thru someone else's eyes

[8/10 · 28 July 2006]

I bought this movie because of Mr. Hewlett. I find him fascinating. The few people who had seen this movie warned me how "stupid" it was. I disagree. I don't know about other people out there, but this film hit home. I didn't see any villain or hero in this movie. I just saw people, normal people. Neither good or bad, just misdirected. Yes the kids chased him up a tree and kept him there for a night while they argued about what to do. Yes he did admit to getting it on with prostitutes and that he saw no problem with taking illegal narcotics. The scene where Kel gets him to admit how unfaithful he has been is brilliant. That's when he realizes he's just as "bad" as the kids who have him trapped in a tree. I recommend this movie for anyone who wants to see a movie about seeing who you really are thru the eyes of someone else.
