Parenting should be illegal to some people……..
I watched The Heart is Deceitful Above All Things. I had never heard of it and apparently there was a lot of controversy surrounding the book. It seems it was a bit of a James Frey hoax thing but I really did like James Freys book and will be getting this one as soon as I’m not poor anymore, lol.

OK back to the movie………..

There is nothing ‘good’ in this movie, it was a breath taking, horrific piece of film. It will take a strong constitution to be able to watch it. It’s not something that everyone could handle and is a topic I generally avoid like the plague for the sake of my sanity, but I think it should be seen or read by everyone. It’s child abuse displayed in some of the most harrowing heartbreaking scenes I have ever watched in a movie.

It’s about a child called Jeremiah who was born to his 15 year old mother then fostered as a very young child by a family who loved him as every child needs and deserves to be loved. When he was 7 his mother returned to claim him and we see how fecking brutal some people are when it comes to being parents, in fact she was brutal as a human. I’m sure I will be the only person on the planet who could feel sorry for his mother but I have to admit I did. She was a mental case first and foremost and needed help.

We see Jeremiah being treated in the most awful ways by his mother and his various ‘new dads’. She gave her 7 yr old drugs she gave him to her boyfriends, she gave him away again, when she had enough of him, to her absolutely cuckoo religious zealot parents. I couldn’t decide if it was worse to be treated the way he was when he was with his mother, with no way of knowing who to blame or if it was worse to be treated horrendously in the name of God.

He spent three years with his grandparents in their cult like lives until his ‘mother’ decided she wanted him back. We see the return of the cycle of abuse, neglect and tear inducing living that the now 10 year old child has to go through.

There is no feel good factor to this movie. There is no happy ending, no forgiveness and no redemption. There are no epiphanies for any of the abusers and no relief for a child that was born to another damaged child.

I got so fecking angry while watching this and I cried my heart out for the fictional child of the movie but more for the children of the world that live the life Jeremiah did and no one does a fecking thing to save or protect them.

I hate to see children treated like they have no rights, I hate that people actually believe a child has no rights. I hated this film as I was supposed to and I recommend everyone else give themselves the chance to hate it too.

I have a copy of it here and feel like buying enough to give a copy to everyone that I know. I want everyone else to watch it. It is a movie that needs to be talked about for days with someone else. It needs to be discussed, dissected and despised.

Karma. x

seen it all before
if you’ve seen the horrible movie White Oleander (which was an adaptation of a not-much-better book), then essentially, you’ve seen this movie, too. It’s your classic glitzy rendition of an abusive childhood, fraught with that sort of painful beauty that people seem to get into, as told by someone with no grasp on the reality of situations like the ones depicted in the film.

Little Jeremiah is plucked from a presumably stable foster home to live with his trashy bleach-blonde mother–she’s sort of like a down-home version of Chloe Webb in Sid & Nancy, including the hoarse shriek. Anyway, the kid faces all sort of horrible abuse subsequently, and one albeit sort of cheesy effect i liked was his vision of violent red birds whenever something happened to him.

Frankly, it all seemed too overproduced, with bright colors and cool punky/hooker outfits for mom and lots of shiny things. I suppose that quality is supposed to evoke childhood or childishness or something, but to me, it seemed like yet another Hollywood glamorization of what would in reality be a dismal and dreary life. In short, it was unconvincing and the ending was a HUGE letdown; when the credits began to roll I was left sitting there saying, “That’s all? But then what happened? Or do I really care at all?” And am I the only one who thinks that playing off a well-known literary hoax, including using it in the tag-line, seems a little desperate for attention?
