This Divided State (2005)

Review by CormacMcBellow

This Divided State

8/10

A film about intolerance.

To whomever commented earlier on this film, by saying that a viewer should be justifiably dissuaded by not moving to Utah, in particularly the Provo/Orem area, after watching this film, you are merely perpetuating an equally intolerant mindset as the ones discussed in the film.

I enjoyed this documentary, and would recommend it. It is pretty even keeled. The politics of the filmmaker are obviously left-leaning, but I don't think it detracts from the themes discussed/addressed by the film. Filters, filters, filters, right? I think more so than even the Michael Moore visit to UVSC, I enjoyed the religious implications that are discussed in the political gap of the LDS faith. I also enjoyed the subplot with the Joe Vogel and his eventual resign from the student body. This played out the effects that our decisions/intolerance/peer-pressure can have on friendships, as well as the social and cultural implications.
