To Catch a Killer (2023) – is a strange film, that outright LIES to it’s intended viewers.
It’s not about how they are going to catch a killer, this title is just a feint, to fool critics and audience alike. The purpose of the film is to ask some very uncomfortable questions sneakily, so subtly that viewers are not even aware that they were asked anything, yet the question will linger and doubt will fester and maybe this will lead to finding some answers in oneself.
Tumblr media
Problems stated, questions posed:
Homelessnes
Sexual harassment
Human and LGBT rights
Gun control
History
Racism
Sexism
Police bias
Media responsibility
Media sensationalism
Ecology
Pollution
Politics and populism
Workers rights
Police unprofessionalism
Police brutality
And it’s not an attack on any one country. You see people at the mall, workplace, struggles with higher-ups, who don’t care one bit about solving the crime, but only about how it will reflect on their political aspirations (and everything can be sacrificed for that). It’s universal.
I look at those human interactions and it’s the same everywhere. I look at these landscapes and see a typical Russian small town during winter:
Tumblr media
РУС!реал
– How long have you been married? – Ever since we were allowed.
This snippet of dialog jolts the viewer with it’s choice of words: the notion that you need to be ALLOWED to get married feels instantly WRONG, and yet… I find it much more effective that just silently doing token “representation”.
This jolt is much needed, it shakes up viewer and pokes at their assumptions about what kind of film they are watching just in time to pose the main Question right in the next scene.
The Question is stated outright, as well as the answer author proposes and later puts to test.
Tumblr media
Big question to ask.
– That’s the big question. How people shape systems and how systems shape us. Today it’s all about the STATUS. People who have it will kill to protect it. People who want it will kill to achieve it and everyone else will be crushed inbetween. Governments, corporations, high school.. pattern seems to be the same. – How do we change that? – You need empathy. Connection. If we truly see ourselves in other people, we want to raise them up, not bring them down.
This is exactly what our protagonist will try to do when facing their perpetrator – establish connection, empathise, work together.
Tumblr media
The perpetrator with his need for space and time, with his cabin in the woods reminds me of Henry David Thoreau. He even looks like him!
Tumblr media
In the last arc wounded and dying perpetrator is hunted down with the whole might of police force. It’s all blinking lights, whole fleet of cars, helicopters in the air, radio chatter and sirens, all hands on deck. Hunters form a line and their prey is trapped.
Tumblr media
We got his tracks!
This comes after this man stated his need for quiet, desire and inability to hide from society.
Makes viewer feel sick long before suicide by the firing squad of cops.
It’s a strange sad film, but it’s got sharp teeth and claws, and it puts boredom, glory, beauty and horror on display:
Tumblr media
Boredom and Glory.
Tumblr media
Beauty.
Tumblr media
Horror
The essential advantage for a poet is not to have a beautiful world with which to deal; it is to be able to see beneath both beauty and ugliness; to see the boredom, and the horror, and the glory. T.S. Eliot

Retreat
When humans disappoint me,
I find my way outside
among the tall and shady pines
where isolation hides.
The dangers of the downfall,
a threat of tooth and claw,
where every errant step you take
rebukes you, pained and raw.
No pretense of the handshake,
no practice by the book,
no judgment for the words you say
or how they way you look.
Just wind and sky and water,
just stone and cold returns,
a classroom where the man
with zero expectations learns.
So when the sweetness sours
and life turns cold and stale,
don’t seek me in the busy streets;
you’ll find me on the trail.
-GeorgeFilip

i dont use my jealousy to sulk in a corner and cry. i use it as inspiration to be better than you, i will be jealous and only stop when im better and have more than you. im not jealous, im inspired to be better than you because i know that i am and will be everything you wish you were

I'm annoyed how ppl are insistent that socializing is something 100% obligatory & that even if ppl show zero interest in u, you should still force yourself to them.
Why push yourself towards that when you know how it'll go? Sounds illogical to me.

Listen, I just believe that humans can only be truly good and kind-hearted in fiction. In the real world it's impossible.
