When we go to see a movie we never really know every detail of it. Sometimes people don't even know who directed the film. While researching the movie District 9 there were a lot of things I didn't know and I'm sure some of us didn't either. We never really know the little details because that's not why we go to the movies because we just want to see the big picture, well that's how I am, I just see the movie on the screen and that's it, I never really go into depth of what it is. I'm watching unless, of course, it's based on true events. But as I watched District 9 I wondered how they managed to make the aliens make us feel so bad that we as viewers wanted to help these creatures. So as I did research, I discovered some pretty surprising things, things that we didn't know about. I will focus on the hidden thing in District 9 that was never brought to our attention. Another thing I'll talk about is this viewer Emily Perrin telling the other viewers what District 9 taught us. It's amazing how the directors have this amazing story to tell that comes from their head. Well, this director shot in a different way, some of the most important scenes in the film were improvised, fantastic! huh? Yes, I couldn't even believe that director Neill Blomkamp thought it would be better because it would feel more real that way. His viewers would have a sense of reality in his film. Speaking of reality, he also interviews real interviewers for his film. "But what a lot of people don't realize is that he created Alive in Joburg footage of people being interviewed about aliens, using real interviews... I was asking black South Africans about black Nigerians and Zimbabweans. That's actually where the idea: there are aliens there... middle of paper... be comfortable because they couldn't go back to where they came from. But the people there didn't want anything to do with them, so they forced them to leave these decisions to help one of the aliens in the end. This just showed us that when you know someone, we know them from the inside and not from the outside. You know the saying don't judge a book by its cover, well Wikus got to know this alien and it helped him. We get so much information from this film, such as about the real interviewers and where the scenes were filmed. It's amazing, isn't it, to find things like that? Even though it's a science fiction film, it teaches us a lot about the world we live in. Works Cited "The Urgency to Escape Cinema: What District 9 Taught the World | Tor.com."
