V for Vendetta

V for Vendetta, good movie, I liked it. “the art of using lies to tell the truth” is a common thread of this movie. It originally seems like an allegory for the current American administration and media status (Bill O’Riley as the voice of London and everything). But it was published a decade ago between 1982 and 1985 as a graphic novel based on WWII. Maybe history repeats its self. But it’s a great social awakening. An extreme fascist single party state has arisen, called Norsefire, that maintains control of the country through food shortages (arising during the nuclear winter), government-controlled media, secret police, a planned economy, and concetration capms racial, political, and sexual minorities.
Oh and that annoying mask, it didn’t hit me until they said it in the movie, it’s a guy fawks mask. The man in 1905 tried to blow up parliaments and King James the first in the gun powder plot. The movie was good with one scene that was disappointing.
Ill give it
