Underground Exposed

"Nothing is as violent as the violence of the mind..." by Boxoffice magazine.  Truly interesting and very true.  We can sometimes not even express our anger and madness because there are no words or actions that would satisfy our thoughts, this is what makes this statement so true and brilliant.  This is why this film, "Notes from Underground" is considered the most violent film of the year.  To hold in all the anger and pent up frustration is likely to drive one mad and lead to a downward spiral for one's one health and eventually ending their life.  Violence of the mind can't be stopped because we cannot stop our human given right to think and feel.  To end our own thoughts and emotions is to end our life, but even to act out a suicide is less violent than to slowly let violence kill us from a psychological manner in internal anger. 

The protagonist is his own antagonist.  He is so spiteful because he is dying from internal violence of the mind besides the diagnosis of liver cancer.  Only he can cure and stop the violence of his mind, but it appears he revels in it.  Some people become so angry that they are dying that they actually let an illness take over all other thoughts in their mind.  They become bitter with resentment and spite and no matter what anyone else may try to do to help them they become consumed with anger.  This is actually making his life and death more painful because he is so spiteful and has such a negative mindset.  To have this raw emotion exposed on film can't help but be emotionally touching, because everyone knows anger to a certain extent and this film pushes our limits to someone who has anger at large seeping through their veins.
