Dreams & Reality
All that I can remember of this dream is that at some point in the dream I got a private message on Facebook from Mr. D, who is an associate of my female coworker MA, and at some point I went to a building; and Mr. D and MA and MA’s son G were there.
I remember talking to them, that G was in a good mood, and that G was running around playing in the room as I talked with MA and Mr. D.
Last night my brother GC and I watched the film Beasts Of No Nation, it was one of the best films that I have seen this year and to me it was more cinematic than most major release films even though it is just a Netflix film while also seeming realistic enough to make it almost seem like a documentary, but I did feel that the film was a bit too long and that a few parts of the film should have been properly explained/shown and I felt that Idris Elba could have done a bit better with his performance (he did good at times especially during some of the early speeches but something just seemed a bit off with his performance and/or character to me at times, maybe it is just how his character was written/portrayed, and so I could be wrong) and the film started to lose its way near the end in my opinion; but the acting overall was good especially the child actors/actresses (like Abraham Attah) who were the real stars of this film, the setting/environment/et cetera seemed realistic like you were really there, and I felt that it probably did a good job trying to more accurately present the subject which is serious and not pretty and not uplifting so do not expect a happy film.
