I'm still watching movies when I do my treadmill exercise. It's been about fourteen months since I first started using the treadmill. The challenge to overcome any rationalizations that I might conjure up to avoid sticking to my five day workout is ever present, but so far I've persevered.
I rented the movie Steel Toes this week and finished watching it last night. The movie is very intense. It is about a white supremacist who commits murder - in a fit of rage that manifest itself through extreme violence - using the perpetrators own steel toed boots. This anger and racial hatred is inflicted on a person of Indian descent. The young man, who describes himself as a skinhead, is arrested for the murder and upon meeting his lawyer for the first time shows no remorse, or empathy, towards the innocent person who was subjected to his brutal attack. The man did not die at the scene, but later died an agonizing death in the hospital. He describes his hospital appearance as that of a person who has been mauled by an animal. The court appointed lawyer must find some defense for the skinhead's action and the crux of the story evolves around that point.
The character portrayals in the movie Steel Toes are excellent. As disturbing a subject matter as one might ever encounter, the acting is mesmerizing and the outcome seems plausible. If you are in the mood for a very intense movie experience, check out Steel Toes. You may come away with a different view of human nature and the facets which contribute to bigotry.
