but it shows the stupidity of government policies, the do-gooders ones
China's One Child Policy for instance.
The West's terrorism laws, for another

I think this film is great, but his eye thing bothers me, too. I wonder why he leaves it there? Is it a British thing?
What is the obssession with having perfect teeth, perfectly proportioned bodies, a certain size of breasts, a specific amount of suntan and all manner of unnatural things? What is with Nature making people just fine one way, over thousands of years of evolution, only for them to pay a ridiculous fortune by going under the surgeon's knife? Are people THAT incapable of getting a job without a perfect appearance? How did they all manage before plastic surgery?
Are plastic surgeons THAT impoverished that they desperately need their fourth luxury yacht (which these generous surgery bills fund) in order to survive out there??!!
Is it an American thing?
But in all seriousness, it probably is a non-Hollywood mentality, be it Britain/UK specifically or whatever. Plastic surgery is insanely expensive in most parts of the world and often viewed as both unnecessary and seriously vain. The amount of magazines and websites obssessing and criticising over which celebs have had boob jobs, nose jobs and so on is evidence enough, but the sheer cost is subequently viewed as a serious waste of money.
In certain circles, acting ability is the only thing of importance and it's a good thing too, else we'd never have enjoyed the talent of actors such as Ron Perlman, Steve Buscemi, Pete Postlethwaite, Danny Trejo or Robert Davi, whose appearances are not exactly Playgirl Pinup
Also, to quote Christian himself:
"It's just disgusting, this vanity-fuelled profession".
None of that really saves this film, though!!! -

I'm pretty sure the stereopsis of his binocular vision can compensate, just like it does for well, anyone who has a nose, really!!
Worry not about his lack of cosmetic surgery, but about his choice of film especially if he keeps choosing ones like this!! -

They did seem to distinguish between emotions and feelings, with some minor explanation, though what they were on about is not really worth my time to try and debate over.
Seen the film thrice. That was enough.
