"after all, bible-believers notwithstanding, if you eat and wear animals and agree that it’s o.k. to torture them in the name of science and beauty, what’s the big deal?"
in robinson devor's new(semi)-documentary “zoo,"he explores a community of famers and friends (all men who live about 45 minutes southeast of seattle), who gather together and show their "love" of animals...they might have too much love- i'm gonna be honest. it centers around a man from this community who died from a perforated colon when he attempted to have sex with a horse. luckily for us, devor doesn't get too graphic with those images. even so i find myself wondering: in a world where we treat animals as inanimate, disposable commodities- is this really so bad...is it really any worse? read more about the film (which i don't believe will be opening nationwide) here- http://www.nytimes.com/2007/04/25/movies/25zoo.html?bl&ex=1177646400&en=10b7387b3de4d32b&ei=5087%0A
