How You Can Survive Anorexia

I am too. Yesterday. But do not let go.

(UPD: I still do not agree with the author reviews the following: it seems to me that this is just episode of Life, and not death, because death - this is just part of life, the last Circuits Layout, the last piece of the puzzle, and what will it all - depends on us. We ourselves are building their lives. Just sometimes it is important to remember that we do not know when it's ... well ... the word is taboo!)

As best I still can not write, scribe reviews 6 feet under by [info] karial :

"Six Feet Under, or how you want your funeral?
I finished watching Six Feet Under. "Six feet under the ground" - a series of owner's family funeral home. Rather, it is a show about death, and that death as a natural end of life is present in every way - as well as and birth. And therefore it is important netabuirovannym element of our existence, set the tone very much in this world. A refrain is a rhetorical question relatives of the deceased - because in every episode someone buried: "Why do people die?" - and the answer, which routinely give the main characters: "Because it gives our lives meaning. "

If I wrote a review of the film, I would have written that it was written by a screenwriter, "American Beauty." After Oscar all wanted him to get, but when the producer of HBO sent the script, he realized: this is it. Or about the fact that the entire leadership of the project is rooted in theater. They important was the acting, but because each character was chosen carefully after the readings, many were behind the successful theatrical career - and this movie felt. He looks the same breath. There's no reading of the text that occurs in continuous scenes of many serials. Rather, recall stories about the actor playing tiny role of "Bon appetit," as most important in his career - to say nothing about the main characters. Or about the fact that the film up to the last detail shows the process complied with precision, whether it is about the techniques of embalming and makeup products to recreate the kind of late, licenses and inspections of funeral Business trends in the business or the role of funeral director, "funeral director" ... Perpetual amateur production of novels, I must confess that stuff business process interested I have no less than profound experience dramatic characters. But interviews with dozens of owners of funeral homes as a recognized "I waited for punctures, but it was not "approved soon in the sensation of literacy picture than surprised. Because the level of detail looks pretty convincing. What is one part is to improve techniques of cremation in the late twentieth century, which resulted in dust no longer contain visible pieces of bone, and gained an even consistency as one of the formative elements.

you shocked by the last sentence? This is good because it brings us to the most important. In addition, this series has done for America - and what he has done for me personally over the last couple of months unseparated viewing five seasons: removing the taboo on discussing death. We are accustomed to to see death, raschlenenku, horror on the silver screen or a computer game - tens, hundreds, thousands per year. We almost did not feel about it. But most of us - praise be to modern medicine and atomized industrial society - face her in person a few times in my life. Death, the process of grief, mourning became, if not taboo, it remains silent about the topic in the modern world. We feel uncomfortable discussing whether we prefer land burial or cremation - and therefore postpone it until later. We as a society have lost the perception of death as one of the elements of life, and trying to shove it under the rug in the corner of our consciousness . Meanwhile, death can occur at any time.
- Once a film about the death - said the film's director, in an interview - we decided to show it in each series.
Death is different - as expected from the disease, and sudden. Healthy, full of energy people are dying on screen, although a minute before the incident, no one suggests could not such a terrible ending. The man leans out of the car pick up a newspaper with the asphalt - and falls, from which a jeep going down, moving lying on the ground owner. Workers dropping the subject from the roof to a passerby. Lightning strikes the umbrella. A faulty elevator door cuts man trying to pull a woman of stuck between floors of the cabin. Car crashes, heart attacks, falls. All from a very well - no "Chernukha. Important fact, not an element of shock. Cope with the shock professionals, resulting in a corpse in the state, which can show the family. Each of the deaths ends funeral. Very different - one is struck by the set small communities - each with their own spirit and tradition - a modern America. This is not the only special funeral of different religions. Here bikers dancing under Sweet Home Alabama and drinking bourbon .. sectarians, on duty at night in the morgue with children ... gay decorator, putting an opera at the funeral of a partner ... lovers of comics, horonyaschie chapter Society "Blue Tornado" with the first issue of the comics in a coffin - dozens and dozens of episodes based on real precedents.

imagine how half of the readers at this point shrugged his shoulders and says something like:
- I somehow did not really love it all .... I once shocked a farce on the theme of death ...
But the series - this is not a farce and not an attempt to shock - it's an invitation for a serious conversation with tactful conversationalist.

In the Middle Ages death was public - it happens often. Seeing priest with the holy gifts included a house, unfamiliar people were followed - almost instant withdrawal from life. In modern society we have lost the ability talk about death, prepare for death, perceiving it as a part of life. And it's not only hesitated to write a will or to speak with her husband that, in what cemetery you would like to settle down or someone would not you like to see at the wake. The fact that, as is evident from the series, the proximity to death makes people quite differently to appreciate life. Someone of the heroes of this translates into ongoing frantic novels, someone has to experiment with drugs, someone a passionate desire to have kids. But it is precisely this ability to appreciate life passed series. Together with the simplicity of the discussion with your loved ones that you like in the case if. Because, after 'if' they will only have to guess and worry, thinking that he would like a loved one.

This extraordinary series the end ... he knowingly received a fair share of cinematic prizes and entered into the history of television. But to appreciate it, we should see the movie. "

from myself add: Yes, do not you dare to watch the ending for the sake of ending. If interested, see the whole movie, you will not regret!
This 5 seasons on average 13 episodes each. Удачи!
