movie review - F.R.E.D.I.

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-eight years and a million words

Toronto, 2019.01.05

This is a movie about a kid who discovers a robot thing. Maybe a toy, maybe a weapon. Anyway, he goes about befriending the robot and then doesn't want to give it up. Various parties become interested and the whole thing limps to an end.

We endured it because the seven year old was fairly engaged.

Not recommended.

I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.
