It's interesting how movies and books and tv shape our frame of reference and how our experience changes the way we see them. There are movies that I watched when I was a teenager and young adult that I can't bear to watch or even think too hard about now. Not that I've necessarily had personal experience that sensitized me, but I think growing up forces you to shed a lot of the "that can't happen here/to me" insulation you're packed in as a kid.
