I have a film concept and project idea on Stop Bullying. But this short film - "Losers" - is so well conceived and so well done that I am in awe. I am inspired to draw from its creative and emotional power. Those whom bullies bully are regular boys and girls. They are like everyone else. They hurt like you and me. So much so that I am reminded of that exchange in William Shakespeare's "The Merchant of Venice," where Shylock asks, dripping with pathos, If you prick us, do we not bleed?
In the hustle and bustle of everyday life, I love the quiet absorption of being in a darkened theater and the vicarious release of watching a movie or a play. I know I am not the only one.
