"I Am" - A Film about Humanity

In his movie, I Am, Tom Shadyac calls out unbridled greed as a genuine mental illness, and takes us all to task for tolerating letting the mentally ill run and control the nation, and world.

Director Tom Shadyac speaks with intellectual and spiritual leaders about what's wrong with our world and how we can improve both it and the way we live in it.

It's a damn good movie.

(Models unknown) (Just an image I found on the web) Like I said, I get that people like to sculpt and modify their bodies for self-expression and because it makes them feel good. Sometimes, though, I really think people need to talk to a therapist, instead.
