i just come back from the montreal premiere of zero day . and i be surprise a hell to find a negative comment on the movie . basically the blame be about coccio do an easy and overplayed social message . well and mr i be a reviewer and it an easy and overplayed critic of movie with a social charge . not that i want to expose my life here and but i come from a small town with a similar school than these guy go . reject and ignorance on the menu . thing be . i understand how can young kid can be drive to do such horror . high school have become battle field of conformity . it a real ugly sight . you need to fight your way into be like the others . it hard to explain and bite a lot of people dosen not realize that high school be become cemetery of human intelligence . meanwhile and parent be close their eye and smile about how their life in their comfortable suburb be perfect . the real motive of the movie isn not about what be drive them . it about this death like calm suburb and everybody close their eye and try to create this atmosphere of a perfect town . cal express it well . it a wake up call . drama be everywhere and it can take every shape . in that case little drama ( like andre be call a faggot for wear a j. c penny shirt ) be shape into be the bad nightmare of a whole town . andre and cal take the most extreme way to express their pain . the malaise of unconformity in an era where you need more than ever to be like the others to be accept . i like particularly the last scene where some guy be burn the cross of andre and cal and like if with the pain they communicate and cal and andre have communicate their blind rage to their community and their refusal to think about the cause of some act . it might seem aggressive a a movie and but coccio be meditate more than whining or enunciating . what andre and cal be live be a reality . and a scary one that might get to other kid . disturb movie . home making and strong feeling make ben coccio do a very very disturbing movie .
