The ending was garbage, but I'm sure someone will say we are stupid and didn't understand it.

From the Director:
"We certainly do think that there has to be a better distribution of wealth, but the film is not strictly about capitalism," explained Gaztelu-Urrutia. "There may be a criticism of capitalism from the beginning, but we do show that as soon as Goreng and Baharat try out socialism to convince the other prisoners to willingly share their food, they end up killing half of the people they set out to help."

I found this on youtube
The most important scene of this movie is when the boss upstairs yells at his cooks because no one downstairs ate the panna cotta and he thought the reason for this was simply because there was a hair in it. Sadly, the boss never understood the true message within the panna cotta, he always looked down to those people below as they were savages. The message was the panna cotta, there was no child, it was an illusion made by goreng himself to fulfill his own belief. Unfortunately, the people on top never understand the message from below.

Man I watched this again last night and let me say...It is even more eye opening upon 2nd viewing considering the times we are living in currently.

This film speaks to so much about our society today and the sickness within it.

Acted helpful then shitted on the Black man for trying to climb up. Fucked me up.

What's even wilder is the fact that the black man thought if he just got to the top, he'd be good. But in essence, the entire system was designed to be horrendous. Even being at the top was never really the top. Having the best living conditions in hell doesn't mean you aren't still in hell.

This is a deep movie man. I'm still thinking about it today.
