So director Cameron Crowe’s new film We Bought A Zoo is about to be released; based on the true story of a recent widower (played by Matt Damon) who quits his job and buys a run-down zoo as a way to deal with the grief of his wife’s death. Now, I haven’t seen the film but with the talent involved, I’m sure it’ll be a fine effort. However, I’m still left with a burning question:
What is the deal with white people?
Seriously, there’s a lot about this story’s method of dealing with sadness and grief that…well, to be honest, is just weird. I don’t get it ‘cause the appropriate Asian response in the situation that Damon’s character finds himself in would be to go to Vegas, gamble away lots of money, get drunk off your ass and frolick with strippers. But buying a motherfrickin’ zoo? What the hell is that?
