</A> -Cui Bono?-
Well, I saw this movie today, and was ready to expect either of two scenarios. One
was that they would paint the idea of secret societies as SO powerful and SO insidious
that you simply could NOT believe they could be real and exert the power they do. The
other was a total whitewashing in the other direction whereby they really don't have
the power people think they do. It was more the former than the latter.
The movie was, of course, based upon the Skull and Bones, as you all know. The
allusions were obvious and everywhere. There was even some mention of other secret
societies, also with changed names, to protect the innocent no doubt.
I found very interesting the connections that were put forward. The inherent nature
of the thing, and that it was a life long obligation, were also interesting tidbits.
There was a subplot in the movie which was also of note (which I shall not talk about
so as not to ruin it for those who want to see it). The subplot has a bearing on
things we discuss here daily and on plotics in general.
Overall I'd say the movie was pretty entertaining, and was not over the top, at least
not too much. I feel that people seeing this movie might be moved to accept that such
societies exist and that they are powerful and capable of much. It should hopefully
shed some light where there is nothing but darkness and secrecy, and that can't be a
bad thing in the end.
