Jangled

Well, we saw Slumdog millionaire last night. I came out feeling jangled and raw. We then went to a noisy bar and left soon after as I was finding it unpleasant. By the time we got home I was more jangled and this morning I am only just settling.

I found the movie a powerful vehicle to convey suffering. It brought to mind those fearless Bodhisattva. Checking on Wikipedia I note protests about "poverty porn" and "slum voyeurism". I was starting to feel sick.
