"Government should be afraid of their people."

Forget the movie. It's like highlights of the best scenes, and nothing more. For REAL depth and danger, look inside the g.n. This isn't about revolution; it's about **anarchy**, about no-government vs. ANY government...and with a deft, cold stroke, Moore paints a future England even more bleak than it is today, utterly brought to half-life (as far as it can manage) by David Lloyd's amazing art. Hard to bleieve this was a middle-of-the-book serial in a British black-and-white anthology comic back in The Day; it reads as if it was built in a single, nightmarish session...crammed with hard things to say.

i like Stephen Rea in v for vendetta
he was cool as inspector finch
good movie (via Anne Marie Kerrr)

The only girl who can look good with a shaved head = Natalie Portman. Don't ask my to explain this movie, because I can't. (via amazon.com)

"Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a by-gone vexation, stands vivified and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin van-guarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition. The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta, held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous. Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose, so let me simply add that it's my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V."

A truly great movie about living above fear, fighting for what you believe in, and social revolution. Natalie Portman is really amazing in this movie as well.

A revolution without dancing is not worth having

That was a great, great movie! The plot is a terrorist freedom fighter known only as "V" begins a violent guerilla campaign to destroy those who've succumbed to totalitarianism, and recruits a young woman he's rescued from the secret police to join him. (via esh)
