Is there something you saw in a movie that sparked a change in your life?

I started eating my french fries with mayonnaise after Vincent Vega told Jules that he saw people eating them that way in France. I was like, hm.. Not all the time, just sometimes.

hi DanielChristensen

sure I became a vegetarian after watching The Animals Film - it is a feature documentary film about the use of animals by human beings, directed by Victor Schonfeld and Myriam Alaux, and narrated by actress Julie Christie. The film was first released in 1981.

The Animals Film presents a survey of the uses of animals in factory farming, as pets, for entertainment, in scientific and military research, hunting, etc. The film also profiles the international animal rights movement. The film incorporates secret government footage, cartoons, newsreels and excerpts from propaganda films.

I did not want to be a part of the industrial exploration of animal life on Earth.

hi greenmountaingal
Thanks for that information. Blood of the Beasts (Le Sang des bêtes) is a 1949 short French documentary film written and directed by Georges Franju.
