"I'm in a world of shit, yes, but I'm alive and I'm not afraid." -Joker

Full Metal Jacket

By Melissa IngoldsbyPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

Kubrick relentlessly showcases human horrors, however brutal,

Never turning the camera away once.

Internal fears of failure of a jelly donut hidden, to destroy a whole Marine outfit

External hatred of leaving a girl to die

Just because she was part of the enemy state

A world of shit, alive.
