I made no presumptions about the movie, even after watching the trailer several times during my cigarette breaks. The filming technique I would say is novel though it has the same conditions of being in school manifest in clarity with the broken glass of the director's camera..I don't take a big liking to Spielburg's works, but this certainly is the antithesis of it. When Gus Van Sant breathes life into a film, he usually shifts between characters to destroy the myth of a central force by Truth. I find this gives the viewer a more distant relation to the film, since Hollywood has a reputation for exposing a poetic outlook. I am sure these kids end up surviving the whole episode, otherwise there would be a whole courtroom drama to deal with.. In any case, the trailer's ambiguity can only produce advertisement through a few guess shots. In any case, it looks gorgeous on my monitor screen after a steaming shower where egg is going through the drainpipe..I leave it up to Gus VSant to prove that modern film works go against the traditional concept started from Homer's misconception of time..into an entropy which is very much the wave of the future..
