Great documentary about The nephew of Sigmund Freud. Edward Bernays, and how he used his uncles ideas to promote commercial products. It's because of him that we wonder "What does this Coffee Table represents you as a person?" Also, promoting the idea that you could achieve any form of satisfaction or fulfillment through Commercial Purchases. The most fascinating part was the idea of the tremendous dissatisfaction that comes when that new Car doesn't make you more Virile. At best making you think you are, regardless of the truth of it. In a way it then becomes a catch 22, Your unhappy because you look for happiness in your food, or watch. Then when you don't get it, you go out and do it all over again.... Apparently you got the wrong one.
I've had a chance to see, Peaceful warrior, which was excellent.
It wasn't anywhere as lame as the Promo, I saw when I was tempted to see it in the theater, that promoted it like an AA film.
