Re: The Official \"gravida\" reaction thread
[ QUOTE ]
are we, then, supposed to infer that the pregnancy is the reason for the absent boyfriend? [/ QUOTE ] yes. there's nothing that comes right out and says it, other than the line that he got cut out because he deserved it. but in the backstory stuff i wrote out, he leaves a little while after he finds out she's pregnant. [ QUOTE ] Cutting the face out in an oval as opposed to just snipping the whole body out of the picture doesn't necessarily tell us anything either, except that she's a bit eccentric and vindictive -- but we don't know the reason. If she really didn't want to be reminded of him, she would have cut him out completely, don't you think? [/ QUOTE ] yeah, and there's another picture in the film that she's ripped in half as a means to delete him. there was a lot of discussion as to how to do that photo and how to cut him out while still having the photo the key is that the photo is a picture of 4 people and a reminder of a happier time with a larger group, so she wants to keep that memory, only she wants to remember it minus the ex [ QUOTE ] It sort of separates at the end (for me, anyway) because she has this baggage, and she can possibly realize that the baggage isn't in her belly; it's all around her. [/ QUOTE ] exactly. it's more than just the pregnancy. it's everything, really. |

other than that, i guess, how do you see the promotional aspects of the premiere influencing the night itself? [/ QUOTE ] in terms of getting people there, etc? i think the posters weren't as effective as we'd hoped, but the myspace blitz helped get some friends of mine from college there who i hadn't seen in a while, which added a nice factor to the whole thing the biggest problem was the timing of when i got really sick, as i pretty much couldn't do anything for 5 days and that just barely cost me the deadline for City Paper and the Post-Gazette, both of whom would have likely done some sort of preview article, and that could have doubled the audience |

Before I respond to any of this in-depth, let me ask you this:
How do you see this film as making the world a better place? |
