Seven - The Film

I finally got to watch the film Seven the other day ... I'm not going to spoil anything because WATCH IT !!
With Brad Pitt and Morgan Freeman as the leading roles in a film structured around the Seven Deadly Sins - what more could you want?!


The film is different from what I will be usually blogging about. I specialise in the beauty, deceit and characteristics of the Sins, in comparison to the film which contains a large amount of gore, blood and murders featuring in it... 
... However likewise to my version, the film does portrays fantastic visuals of the sins combined with the use of a well thought structured story line.

SEVEN TRAILER

So as you can probably tell I very much enjoyed the film .. though I was slightly disappointed with the ending, but hey that's just my opinion - watch it a see if you agree?! I warn you the film Seven is not for the faint hearted!!

Anyway happy watching and remember - only you create your own sins!!

The Sins

Different perceptions of the Seven Deadly Sins :-

The Seven Deadly Sins

The Seven Deadly Sins consist of;

• Lust
• Gluttony
Greed
• Sloth
• Wrath
• Envy
• Pride

All of of these sins humanity beholds - adaptions of these sins occurring all the time. I like that individuals are re-creating the sins because these sins can be anything, dependent on the eye of the beholder. 

What the artist portrays within the images all comes down to their specific interests; my Seven Deadly Sins blog is on imagery and makeup. Personally I like the way in which a woman can be portrayed through the use of creativity because I believe emotion can be shown better through imagery - however that is for you to decide..

..and with that I shall leave you with a fact on the sins:

"Beginning in the early 14th century, the popularity of the seven deadly sins as a theme among European artists of the time eventually helped to ingrain them in many areas of Catholic culture and Catholic consciousness in general throughout the world. One means of such ingraining was the creation of the mnemonic "SALIGIA" based on the first letters in Latin of the seven deadly sins: Superbia, Avaritia,Luxuria, Invidia, Gula, Ira, Acedia."

I will be talking about each of the sins in greater detail, commentating on the makeup used to create the look and talking about the forthcoming sin.
