Details and Car Ads

I was not expecting anything when I decided to drag my friend to watch this movie. Just after 2 days of tears, migraine started to kick in and I hardly can see my own pupil, I figured I need to go out. And this movie is the eyes menu for that night.

Opened with an argue scene about how men should work under women or viceversa, and how women should not work under another women, this movie immediately got my attention. Though for the first 15 minutes, I was looking for (or guessing for more precise) Russell Crowe, the male lead. And there he was, been there in those scenes for 15 minutes, and I didn't recognize him. How age can be very deceiving ;)

It was a happy family of three, dad, mom and son, having their usual morning, when the police suddenly broke and entered the house to arrest mom for murder charge. That was 3 years ago.

Time flies, taking us to t-3 months.

Mom was proven guilty of murder and facing 20 years to life time sentence in the county jail. Its in Pittsburgh, by the way, where the county jail is The Allegheny Jail, which no one can escape from alive before. Dad submitted an appeal to the higher court and got rejected.

And then my favorite part of this movie, when dad asked the question about life to his students in community college. What kind of life you want to live ? The life that is subjected to you by this world or the kind of life that you decide to have ?

Barely spoke too much, just read books, research, one source interview, and detailing. Dad made the escape plan on his bedroom wall. And then it can't wait any longer due to the transference. It's t-3 days.

Not best laid plan and mom's hesitation made a hell car ads. Chevrolet. Nice!

But, escaped.
Caracas, Venezuela is the life dad decided to have with mom and son.





It is detail preparations and patience that make the plan become the best laid plan.
