Beasts Of The Southern Wild - Official Trailer (2012) [HD] (click title to entry for official site)



This is a magnificent picture and screams the entrapment of enforced impoverishment. It portrays how culture grows within poverty. The culture is valued and becomes a barrier itself to changing the quality of life.

The genius of "Beasts of the Southern Wild" is the impacts of this reality in the USA as seen through the eyes of a child. A very intelligent child who uses imagination to incorporate her reality to her identity.

Every peoples living in a third world dynamic has a lifestyle, has values and has cultural understandings about life. The length the 'value / belief system' exists in the community, the depth in which it provides solace, coping and accepting of reality out of their control; the more difficult it becomes for those people to move outside of the demands of their culture.

"Beasts of the Southern Wild" is nominated for Best Picture this year and I sincerely hope it wins. It deserves the award. It would be a new reality for the USA to examine in realizing how children of poverty use their imaginations more than books to secure their lives in love by the people and circumstances around them.
