The IRack

A fanatic Geek

This document was published in the international Herald Tribune.It is a drawing made by Chapatte, a famous cartoonist .The scene takes place at the Cannes film festival on the prestigious Red carpet . In the background we can see there are two actors walking up the stairway waving at the crowd and being flashed by paparazzi. We can also see the fans waving and begging for an autograph . In the foreground of the picture we see an overjoyed fan who is wearing a white T-shirt with an internet symbol on it , Chapatte probably wanted the fan to look like a geek .The blond woman looks haughty she may be the wife or the girlfriend of the man who's standing right next to her . The man is most likely a film director , he looks upset by what the teenager just said to him .
Through this drawing the cartoonist criticizes teenagers who download movies illegally on the internet .
In my opinion this teenager does represent our generation ,  most of us do download just because we don't have time to go to the movies or we just can't afford to buy all the movies we want to watch .I don't think that downloading should be limited because illegal downloading makes our lives much easier.

First post

hey guys ; i didn't really know what to write about but i finally decided to share the plot of one of my favorite movies :Shutter Island .

In 1954, Federal Marshal Teddy Daniels and his new partner, Chuck Aule, from Seattle travel to Shutter Island to investigate the disappearance of a patient there, Rachel Solando. She had been sectioned at the institution for dangerous criminals at Ashcliffe Hospital, because she drowned her three kids. Teddy is a veteran soldier, traumatized by the war experience in the liberation of the Dachau concentration camp and the loss of his beloved wife in a criminal fire. Teddy is unable to access the records of employees and patients and feels that his investigation is obstructed by the management by the Federal facility. Teddy has severe migraines and when there is a storm, Teddy and Chuck find that they are stranded in the island. Teddy interviews the internees and follows a lead to the lighthouse, where he discloses the mystery about the Shutter Island.

My thoughts about this movie : i loved this movie because first of all my favorite actor is in it ,Leonardo Dicaprio , and there is a really interesting intrigue that captivates you until the end of the movie .The end of the movie is so suprising that even after the movie you still think about it ...
