I remember how much I wanted to kinda get inside the movie and just save her before it was too late. Sounds weird I know but damn I wish that didn't happen to her. SIGH
I was a bit surprised that Harry couldn't save Sara or convinced her harder to stop taking those pills. Sure he said it once but why didn't he just throw the pills away or talked to her more and tried changing her?
I did, I definitly did. I saw so much of myself in her and I just wanted to jump into the screen and stop her (and me in a way, I think I might end up like her when I get old) from destroying her life.
sharei wanted to fart in her face.
shareHaving read the book and seen the movie just recently, Sara had to be the one character I sympathized for the most. She was lonely and her husband had died. Death, especially a spouse's, is a hard thing to get over for a lot of people. Sara was no exception.
To answer the question, yes I wish I could have saved Sara Goldfarb. I know - it's just a book/movie. Sure, her drug use wasn't anything worth justifying, but if it had been me, I would have put her in counseling and a support group for lonely widows. I think she was just someone who needed to be reached out and not like her son was helping anyway.
Cast Away...It's like Forrest Gump, but on an island.
I wished I could save all three of them.

Three? Which one are you leaving out?

I feel for Sara because she was naive and really thought all she was taking was diet pills with no side effects. The poor woman just wanted to fit into a dress, go on a game show, and for once be the talk of all her friends. She wasn't some deadbeat who shot up heroine to pass time like her son, that black guy, and Jennifer Connolly. She didn't know what she was getting into with the uppers.
