They just announced the nominees for the Academy Awards, and there was no mention of the "F" word!
I ran it back, to watch again, surely they had not seen the same movies that I watched this year. You see the F-bomb was the star. The winner is over use of the word, F*c*!!!! (OK, Iam having a hard time not writing it, so fuck!)
I will be the first in line, to use special curse words, including that one. BUT...profanity has its place.
If I drop a large can of tomatoes on my big toe, I will scream a slur of S**t, Fu*k, Dam*!!! but to use the big F 500 times in the movie, Wolf On Wall Street?? It looses its meaning, its crass, its no-good. After an hour or two, I looked at the hubs, and said, " Not too sure this is a Christmas movie!"
I loved the movie, very great acting, but who curses that much? Seriously, I know people who curse, and they don't hold a candle to this movie. It was just too much, damn them!
Then I went to see Osage County with my Emma, and here we go again, at the dinner table, do people throw around the F word so freely. No home I have ever been to. Now some of my girls night out dinners, get a little rough, but that is in the privacy of our table, and its in the correct context! ( OK, when Fifty Shades came out, we may have been a little raw!!)
I did not mind Julie Roberts character, along with the women who played her sisters, sitting around, laughing at words that the vagina can be called. That was what we sisters do, and friends and relatives! It was a very funny part of the movie. Again the acting in the movie is some of the best, the entire play/movie is dysfunctional families at their best, I loved it, but saying the enormous F in between each bite of food, that is just too much. I looked at Miss Emma, and asked her, " Do you know people who talk like this?" She said, "Yes" What!!!!! Bad words have become the norm, and that leaves me nothing to use when I so need them!!
So I curse you Movie makers, and how can I do that, when you have used up all my words!!
