Oooooo, that was sick. As oxymoronic as it sounds, there are some types of cartoon violence I can’t stand to look at. Sharp things are too close to real life for me.
I will say it was clever shock value. I did not see that coming. Talk about getting stabbed in the back!
It’s an outstanding film.
As for cartoon violence, I wish ALL violence was in cartoons, but this one is symbolic of the real thing–or rather, of ‘diplomacy’.
I think most of us can deal with it. We deal with the daily news, after all.
Very, VERY profound!
